If starting kindergarten feels daunting for you or your child — you’re not alone.

The free Kindergarten Life Skills program helps preschoolers (ages 4-5) and their caregivers build confidence for the big day through engaging story time and hands-on activities.

Each week features a new theme, from making friends and managing big feelings to practicing kindness and smart decision-making.

Pro tip: Sessions are offered at multiple branches this spring.
