First Things First will present Kick-Off to Kindergarten on Thursday, July 20, from 6-7:30 p.m.
Kick-Off to Kindergarten will give parents with children who are soon-to-be kindergartners some insider tips for a smooth transition to the classroom. They will learn how to partner with the child’s educators, ways to be involved both in and out of the classroom, gain tips to lessen anxiety about the first days of school, explore the importance of routines and schedules in the home and much more.
Since FTF is partnering with the Downtown YMCA for this event, parking in the garage next door is free when participants get their ticket stamped at the Y. If needed, child supervision with activities for little ones is included in the registration fee.
As a bonus, each family will receive a family fun pack filled with goodies to prepare them for this transition. There will be snacks, sweets and some beverages available.
The cost is $10 per adult. To learn more and register, go to FirstThings.org or call the First Things First office at 267-5383.
