ECFE NEWS


The sounds of hammers could be heard down the halls as Lester Prairie Early Childhood Family Education (ECFE) and Heartland Head Start families built reindeer using kits that were purchased from Stewart Crafts. The kits had all of the pieces each family needed to put together their adorable reindeer. They could also choose to do several art projects and play holiday math games. This was the perfect opportunity for families to get in the holiday spirit and enjoy time together.
Every year ECFE and Head Start host 3-4 preschool family nights. Each night has a theme and are offered at either a low cost or for free. These are opportunities for families to spend time together having fun doing a variety of activities including art, math, and literacy. Our next family events will be held Tuesday, February 23 from 6-7pm and Saturday, April 16 from 10-11am in the lunchroom.
ECFE will begin its Tuesday night mixed ages classes starting January 26 from 6-7pm in the preschool room. ECFE is the perfect opportunity for children ages 2- 5 and their parents to come and do art, circle time, and play. We will also be going on two field trips this Winter/Spring. The first field trip will be to Maple Maze in Maple Grove on Thursday, February 4. The second will be to Good Times Park in Eagan on Thursday, March 10.
