EARLY CHILDHOOD
Six-A-Day Program
Partnering with Brilliant Detroit and Detroit Champions for Hope, we facilitate the free Six-A-Day Program to Southwest Detroit families. With childcare included, parents are able to learn weekly about the 6 recommended things to do with your baby daily: encourage, talk, read, sing, hug and play.
Virtual Playgroups
Starting in April 2020 all our early childhood programming was moved to an online format due to the Covid19 pandemic. Watch the video to see some of our past events. To register for future events please contact Amanda Holiday at (313)460-3444 or amanda@cocswdetroit.com (habla español).
Playgroups
Before moving to the online format, CoC held monthly workshops and playgroups for parents and caregivers with children ages 0-8. We hope to return to in-person programming when safe to do so, please keep in contact with us to learn more.
PBS Family Workshops
The PBS Family Workshop is a four-week series put on in partnership with Detroit Public Television. The workshops each focus in on different STEM topics, such as the science of shadows. Families who attend all four workshops receive a tablet at the end of the four sessions. We may offer these sometime in the future. Contact us to learn more.
