NEW THIS YEAR
Collaborative Play
BDA encourages families to be involved in programming where possible. During collaborative play, families are encouraged to explore the classroom with the children and ask the educator questions. During this time, families can become aware of programming, see what the children are learning and extend the relationship with the educator. Collaborative play is available each day at the beginning or end of class (depending on which class).
