What places come out to daycare facilities and do activities for children for free?

Question

i do childcare and was wondering what kinds of places will come to the daycare centers and do fun things with the kids for free. i know like the library will come out and read to them and such. i was wondering what other and more entertaining things that might be available. thanks and have a good day.

Answer 1

Check the clubs at your local university. Often times the Early Childhood Education club (or equivalent) will come out for free. Other clubs will often come out for free or for a small donation.

Answer 2

Target has a program where they come and read Dr. Suess books and then give you the books. Check into that.  I think it is this time of year.

Answer 3

there's actually a lot of stuff out there. you should try contacting your local child care resource & referral agency. also, network with people in the community- attend trainings and conferences and you will be exposed to everything that is offered in your area.

p.s. congrats on your desire to enhance quality in your classroom :)
