In Partnership with New Orleans Jazz Museum

Social skills are foundational to learning in all other domains. Children build the capacity for success in preschool and beyond by establishing themselves as individuals, exploring what it means to possess something, and recognizing the emotions of others. Help little ones develop the skills for healthy social interaction by playing passing and sharing games.

This free 6-part workshop series is made possible by The Helis Foundation. Our workshops provide engaging arts-based activities designed to instruct caregivers on how to use the arts at home to promote early learning. Lessons are conducted by certified Louisiana Wolf Trap Teaching Artists, who have expertly crafted multi-sensory experiences that foster children’s natural curiosity for learning. After each workshop, children and their caregivers can download our digital Connection Cards for tips on how workshop activities can be continued at home.
