Description

The Collaboration for Early Childhood will host its very first ‘Blast Off to Kindergarten’ event at Rehm Park. All children and families who will be entering kindergarten in Oak Park this fall are invited celebrate the journey into a new galaxy that is not so very far away: kindergarten! 🚀 The event will feature early learning programs, after-school programs, District 97 kindergarten teachers, administrators, and parent teacher organizations. There will be games and refreshments, and a “kindergarten portal” for our future kindergarteners to pass through and “officially” enter the “kindergarten universe.” Be sure to pick up your map and explorer card at the “Collaboration Space Station” to help you navigate this brave new world! Blast off to Kindergarten is meant to celebrate our little ones, but it also will help parents and caregivers connect to parent organizations and the “Solar System of Support” that will help jump-start a smooth transition to kindergarten for everyone involved. Photos and videos will be taken at this event.
