This program is designed and offered to children from five to twelve years old. A wide range of stimulating, entertaining, and educational activities are carefully planned and supervised for this program according to the child's age and interests.
Our program consists of nourishing snacks (juices, fruits, and crackers), a bit of rest and chat, games, outdoor play for fresh air, and "lets-do-the homework!" periods. Every reasonable assistance is given to the children who need explanation or clarification. Also our computers may be used by children with computer assignments or just for fun.
Exciting art projects are introduced to the after schoolers with baking, group games, (and obviously making a lot of mess) as regular features of our afternoons. Programs such as karate, dancing, and music lessons are also offered if there is interest.
We take pride in our comprehensive and varied afternoon program at Morning Star. We have a different approach to after school care. Children are not left in front of a television screen for entertainment or left without supervision. Our "lets-do-the homework!" period is especially a parent's wish come true. The children go home with completed homework assignments and a chance for true quality time with their parents-a precious rarity in this fast-paced society.
