About the Class
Our introductory class is a fantastic option for families looking for extra flexibility! The Mini Learners classes are designed for early learners aged 3-5. We keep our class sizes smaller, with a limit of just seven students, ensuring that each preschooler gets plenty of personal attention in a warm and inviting environment.
We believe in learning through fun, so get ready for a hands-on approach. Your child will dive into exciting activities centered around exploring the targeted letter for that class. From playful centers and engaging storytime to our lively Friends Letter Frenzy, where kids will explore multiple letter activities centered around the targeted letter for that class while building their letter recognition and sounds, it's all a playful exploration!
Our 1.5-hour classes are the perfect addition to your preschooler's day. Many families love weaving these enriching experiences into their preschooler's week. Each session runs for 6 weeks, and you can enroll in as many additional sessions from September to May as you like.

"We had the best experience with Mrs. Faust and The Friends Learning Center. My son’s favorite day of the week was the day he attended TFLC. He learned so much and was very confident and prepared when he began Kindergarten. The small class size gave him the attention he needed to succeed."

We also focus on targeted letter skills, and engage children in playful yet educational activities to help foster a love of learning. All these elements work together to give your child a solid foundation to benefit them when they enter kindergarten.
