Great Adventures FREE info sessions - Plainfield Park District

Parents invited to learn more about Plainfield Park District’s Great Adventures Program for Preschoolers

Interested parents can attend one of two FREE information sessions on the Plainfield Park District’s Great Adventures Program for Preschoolers to learn more about the program.

The first session will take place on Tuesday, Feb. 4 at 7 p.m. and the other session will take place on Wednesday, Feb. 5 at 10:30 a.m. Both sessions will take place at Great Adventures’ Downtown Plainfield location at 24023 W. Lockport St. General information and curriculum content will be shared.

Based on the premise that children learn through play, Great Adventures participants ages 3 to 5 explore, create, discover, problem solve, and communicate to develop age-appropriate skills. Experienced, nurturing staff members implement a progressive program using themes to expose students to colors, shapes, numbers, and letters through a friendly, fun atmosphere. A balance of whole group and small group activities encourage academic and listening skills along with social interaction. Each classroom consists of two instructors and approximately 18 students. All children must be completely toilet trained to participate.

Classes begin in late August and early September and run through mid-May. Morning and afternoon sessions are available. Classes take place at the Heritage Center, 24023 W. Lockport St. in Downtown Plainfield, and at the Streams Recreation Center, 24319 Cedar Creek Ln. in Plainfield.
