Engaging Co-Op Sessions for Homeschooling Families
Our co-op offers a dynamic space for ages 3-13 to explore, create, and connect, all under one roof. Parents work collaboratively to develop and lead age-appropriate activities, ensuring a well-rounded experience for all students.
What Are Co-Op Sessions?
The Stay at Home Moms of Gwinnett Co-Op offers a welcoming space for moms and their young children to connect, play, and learn together through weekly themed sessions that incorporate math, science, exploration, art, and encourage socialization for both moms and littles.
For the younger crowd (ages 3-7), story time, sensory play, and cooperative games foster early learning and social skills. As your child matures (ages 8-13), activities delve deeper into science, history, or literature, with opportunities for project-based learning and group discussions.
Exciting Activities and Learning Experiences
From building mini catapults and dissecting owl pellets to painting masterpieces and creating stop-motion movies, there's something for every child! Explore different cultures, embark on mini-digs for hidden treasures, and witness erupting volcanoes – all while making new friends through cooperative play and group activities. It's the perfect way to nurture your child's development and build lasting memories together!
