About this Event
Satuilijat - Finnish Open Preschool for 2,5-4 year olds
In this program, the students experience the Finnish language and culture in a fun and playful environment. Each lesson is focused on a certain theme organized by the teacher, and includes story time, songs, arts & crafts and other activities that support building positive links to Finnish language and culture as well as encourages practicing new vocabulary.
The caregivers attend the lessons with their children, bonding and creating language learning experiences together.
There will be coffee and light snacks served for all and you are welcome to bring a lunch for you and your child.
The class works as a complement to Finnish as a home language and students should understand some Finnish upon enrollment. That being said, there are no Finnish language requirements for caregivers accompanying the attending children.
Class will meet twice a month, generally every other week, 9 times in the fall, 10 times in the spring.
Day/time: Saturdays 11:00 am- 12:45pm
Dates Fall 2023: 8/26, 9/9, 9/23, 10/14,10/21, 11/4, 11/18, 12/2, 12/16 . Spring dates will be announced later.
