Enrichment programs
From music to art, language to nutrition, our enrichment programs are designed to inspire children, broaden their horizons, and support their growth in every way possible.
Music
Music is a powerful tool for learning and self-expression. Through our weekly Early Childhood Music classes, children engage in age-appropriate activities such as singing, dancing, rhythm games, and listening exercises. These experiences foster creativity, focus, and coordination while introducing the joy of music-making.
Language
Early exposure to a second language enhances cognitive development and encourages creativity. Our students participate in weekly Spanish instruction, providing a fun and immersive way to build problem-solving skills, cultural awareness, and a lifelong appreciation for language learning.
Visual Arts
Art is more than just creative expression—it’s a vital part of development. Our visual arts program helps children explore the world around them while developing essential skills like communication, fine motor control, and problem-solving. Through painting, drawing, and other hands-on projects, children learn to express themselves and build confidence in their abilities.
Every step of the way
At Thrive, we’re here to nurture your toddler’s growing independence while providing a safe and supportive environment for them to explore, learn, and thrive.
