Terrific Twos
Our 26-week program is designed for children aged 18–26 months and their grown up. Classes are led by experienced early childhood teachers and allow your child the opportunity to participate in a classroom environment along with their trusted adult. Children will be able to socialize with others while engaging with age-appropriate activities and materials in a classroom setting.
Applications for our 2024-25 school year are now open. Click here.
Young children must be accompanied by an adult. Classes begin on Tuesday, October 15, 2024. We prioritize* applications according to the date they are received, so early submission is encouraged.
*CBE Members and ECC siblings will be given priority in class placements.

Sing, Dance & Play with Sarah Pope (for children 18 to 26 months)
This class, for ages 18-26 months with caregiver participation, is an introduction to creative dance, and provides an opportunity for young children to develop balance, coordination and motor skills. This class will support the experience of self-expression, imaginary play, and storytelling, through dance! Class is most fulfilling all around when caregivers model participation for the little dancers—participation for each person looks unique of course, and any accommodations needed will be facilitated.
This class can be taken in addition to any two day Terrific Twos class or on its own.
