HEAD START

What Will My Child Do At Head Start?

Children will develop new skills by participating in a variety of activities, including:

  • Choosing his/her own activities within planned curriculum
  • Small group learning activities with other children
  • Large group activities with other children
  • Outdoor play (movement activities will be inside if the weather is too extreme for children to go outside)
  • Having a lunch and one or two nutritional and culturally appropriate snacks daily
  • Learning daily routines and other healthy habits such as brushing teeth, hand washing, and other personal hygiene and self-help skills
  • Napping, resting, and learning to keep themselves quiet (if your child is in a full-day program)
