Beginning with our three-year-old program, World Cup offers extended days in the AM and PM. Registration for these programs are held in August. Due to limited space, all children who register for everyday, all day, get first priority. AM children will be escorted from their regular classroom to Lunch Bunch and then to their appropriate extended day. PM children will be escorted from their extended day classroom to Lunch Bunch and then to their regular classroom. Children are always highly supervised.

A Recipe for Reading
A Recipe for Reading is designed to inspire the young reader to enter the world of literacy. Reading aloud to young children, doing projects, and having discussions result in rich opportunities for the pre-reader. Reading good literature, along with corresponding art and cooking projects, enhances a child's imagination and creativity while reinforcing a love for books. Have you ever wondered what it would be like to have a tea party with Mrs. Spider, go swimming with the Rainbow Fish or bake monkey bread with Curious George? How about constructing a tower with Bob the Builder or helping Pete make a pizza? These are just a few of the art and cooking projects that your children will be doing as we bring books to life in A Recipe for Reading.

Fun and Fitness
Fun and Fitness is designed to inspire healthy habits for young children. Hands-on-cooking experiences, art projects, language activities, learning games, and music and movement will introduce your child to a healthy lifestyle and help them understand, maintain, and appreciate "good health." Experiences such as vegetable printing, making placemats, learning to set the table, and cooking healthy treats will help your child learn how to keep their bodies healthy. Children will learn how movement can enhance their health and will practice yoga postures and aerobic moves appropriate to the pre-school set.

ABC & 123
ABC & 123 is designed to give young children an additional opportunity to learn and work with letters and numbers in a fun and personal way. The children will start by making their own name placemats that they will look for each day at snack. They will play letter and number recognition games such as, "Find the Letter" and "Let's Count it Again." They will be working with sand paper letters, learning to write letters on a dry erase board and many more activities designed around letters, their sounds, words, numbers and math concepts. Our goal is to reinforce the love of learning through letters and numbers.

Little Scientists
Little Scientists is designed to inspire the young scientist to enter the world of exploration and discovery. Hands-on experiments will comprise the bulk of this program. Art projects and learning games will introduce your child to the world of science and help them explore, understand, and appreciate the world around them. Some sample themes include- "I Love Mud," "Little Gardeners," "Bird Watching Fun," and "Rocks and Gems." Experiences such as painting a "pet rock," making a bird house, "erupting" a volcano, and planting a mini-garden will help your child get in "touch" with nature. Exploring the natural world using a microscope will introduce children to the world that exists outside their normal range of vision. Children will explore the properties of various materials using their senses and tools of measurement, such as scales. These are just a few of the exciting activities that your children will be doing as we introduce them to the wonders of the world.
