BrightStart Play Academy is our weekly program with fun play & learning activities for children with a parent circle, where parents can relax and enjoy conversation around a variety of topics. BrightStart for Families is for families with young children (pre-natal through age 4). The adult component is designed to enhance the skills of parents and other care-givers by encouraging an optimal home e

nvironment to improve their baby's success in life. BrightStart emphasizes how parents can stimulate brain development. Parents and caregivers are the single most important part of an infant's world. Parents with knowledge and skills can equip their young children to enter school ready to learn and thrive. There are several key elements to the workshop. We will discuss creating a home with opportunities for a child to grow with good nutrition, a sense of security and safety, ready to learn and develop his or her full potential. An important part of BrightStart is to equip parents as reading partners with their children.
