A Riot of Learning Fun!

Classes at Baby Riot

Our classes are 10-week themed explorations that bring learning through several developmental arenas like language and literacy, music, art, science, math, social and emotional skills, dramatic play, and sensory explorations. Each class features a small circle time with a book and song or finger play, time spent doing a big body play activity, and time exploring two provocations tied to the thematic learning of the collection. Our learning cohorts are split into three groups based on movement level. While movement is one of our focuses, all of our classes are focused to nurture children's development in many different ways and teach their caregivers how to recognize and celebrate each child's unique and amazing learning journey.

Circle Cohort

Our Circle learning cohort is made up of our earliest movers. Each week, the current learning theme is brought through provocations that support intentional grasp, transferring, working with both hands, tracking, rolling, head and neck support, reaching, twisting, and early crawling. These classes match children at a pace that nurtures their curiosity and allows space for their ideas to be heard and followed.

Honeycomb Cohort

As children's movement progresses, life gets a little more complex! Our Honeycomb cohort supports children working on early locomotion, sitting, creeping, crawling, crouching, standing, and early walking. These classes experience a huge growth in the ability for children to focus and communicate their ideas with the learning.

Star Cohort

Our Star cohort learners are our most confident movers, with a lot of time spent exploring walking, running, crouching, crawling, climbing, jumping, dancing, and squatting. These classes become much more socially interactive and even more community focused, giving children a chance to foster and navigate relationships with their peers and community.

Caregiver Groups and Supports

Our caregiver classes and circles are spaces where we bring together different types of caregivers to learn, work through, and support each other as a class group community. Baby Riot is currently forming circles for:

Moms
Dads
Nannies
Grandparents
First Time Parents

Classes and Seminars are offered throughout the year on various topics and concerns for families and caregivers of very young children. Please see our Coming Events for more information.
