 Virtual Hola! Spanish for Kids

Learn Spanish from a native speaker right in your living room with Hola! Spanish for Kids. 

Each week, María reads a picture books geared for little ones in Spanish and teaches simple songs to learn vocabulary such as Buenos Días (Good Morning Song), Adios Amigos (Goodbye Friends Song) and more! Access the full playlist here on our YouTube channel. 

 Virtual Playtime with Nancy

Through play, your child learns self-control, self-worth, problem solving, communicating and so much more.  While all children benefit from playtime with peers, there are unique benefits that come from you playing with your child. Join Early Childhood Specialist Nancy McDermott for an interactive story and activity especially chosen to promote emergent literacy skills and motor development in young children. Access the full playlist here on our YouTube Channel.

 Virtual Bedtime Stories with Miss Nancy

Reading bedtime stories cultivates imagination, encourages a love for reading and creates a bond between reader and listener. During these uncertain times, bedtime stories can be a safe haven to help little ones wind down from the day. On our Facebook page, Early Childhood Specialist Nancy McDermott has been reading a favorite picture book to soothe and delight little ones. Our most popular stories can be found below; access the full playlist here.
