EXTERNAL: SPARK Program – Registration Open!
S.P.A.R.K. (Supporting Parents Along the Road to Kindergarten) is for parents whose children are newborn to age 5. Caregivers learn important strategies and fun activities that offer vital support to their child’s early learning in a 90-minute session every fall, winter, and spring until their child enters kindergarten.
S.P.A.R.K. is based on the British Columbia Early Learning Framework. Caregivers join a live interactive Zoom session with other caregivers of children the same age. It offers families time to reflect on how children learn and grow.
The S.P.A.R.K. program is founded on a philosophy that learning happens naturally through the experiences, relationships, and joy that families share with their children.
Families are provided with materials and toys when they attend the program. Parents can also register for the Imagination Library, which mails a free, age-appropriate book to their children every month until their fifth birthday.
The zoom sessions are on Wednesdays starting October 30 from 10 to 11 a.m. and 7:30 to 8:30 p.m.
