Building Blocks classes create a positive, play-based learning environment and build a strong foundation that helps early learners aged 3-5 prepare for school success. Our experienced instructors know playing is learning. Children learn age-appropriate reading, writing, math, and science concepts through play. Children enjoy daily instruction, arts and crafts, circle time, outdoor play, and more.
Classes are available at three convenient locations: Chandler Community Center, Chandler Nature Center, and Tumbleweed Recreation Center. All classes are drop-off and require children to be potty-trained.
