Terrific Tots is a paid interactive 30-minute program designed especially for children ages 1 to 3 years old that incorporates reading, music, and activities that bring adults and children together in a love of literature, the arts, and science. Families and caregivers are encouraged to participate in small group activities that help children develop fine motor skills, provide sensory experiences, and encourage self-expression.

Terrific Tots themes change once a week and participation is limited to 12 students and their caregivers each day. We follow the Pinellas Public School schedule for vacations and holidays. The program is currently on Tuesdays and Thursday at 10:30 am.

Super Sprouts is a members-only, free interactive 20-minute program designed especially for children ages 1 to 3 years old that incorporates reading, music, and take-home activities that bring adults and children together in a love of literature, the arts, and science.

Take-home activities that help children develop fine motor skills, provide sensory experiences, and encourage self-expression are included.
