Play & Learn Child Enrichment Program

The Play & Learn Child Enrichment Program includes music and movement, literacy activities, STEAM projects that cover science, technology, engineering, arts and math, and arts and crafts. The curriculum changes every week throughout the year, and the same offerings are available each day at every branch for families who use multiple facilities. The program is offered on a voluntary basis for families, and religious beliefs are respected and inclusive when families have specific preferences.

• Schedule: Play & Learn is available for up to 2 hours per day, with a maximum of 8 hours per week, during morning and evening hours on weekdays and morning hours on Fridays and Saturdays.
• Price: The service is free to all active Y members with a family membership.

The Play & Learn Child Enrichment Program has been uniquely developed by the Y’s educational experts and is the only one of its kind in the region. It is part of the nonprofit Family YMCA of Greater Augusta, which has a 168-year legacy of service in the CSRA and offers programs and services at more than 50 CSRA locations. The program is available at all CSRA area branches. The Family YMCA of Greater Augusta states that its mission is to serve individuals and families in the CSRA through programs designed to build healthy spirit, mind and body, reflecting the values of the Judeo-Christian tradition while maintaining respect for all people. The organization notes that the generosity of volunteers and public and private donors is central to its ability to support and give back to local communities.
