Judy Center Early Learning Hub

With the school year winding down, we're gearing up for a busy summer of learning, playing and fun! We are making some slight adjustments to our programming schedule in June to meet the needs of our families, but otherwise, we have plenty of playgroup opportunities available! Please note, all of our playgroups in June will be mixed ages! Please see our June calendar for all of our playgroup dates, upcoming events and field trips!

We will be kicking off the month with our End-Of-School-Year FOAM PARTY!! All of our Judy Center families are invited to attend! We will have food, foam, Kona Ice and much more! See our flyer below, and scan the QR Code to sign up! This event is FREE!

Field Trip: On Wednesday, June 25th, we will be taking a field trip to the Delaware Children's Museum in Wilmington, DE. We will be providing transportation via Charter Bus. Space is limited, so please, one adult per child. Be on the lookout for an sign-up email later this month. This field trip is FREE!

25th Anniversary Celebration: We are pleased to announce the 25th anniversary of the first Judy Center Early Learning Hubs in Maryland!

The Judy Center is an ideal setting for young children to develop emotional, social and cognitive skills to become life long learners. If you know anyone in the Church Hill School zone with children ages birth to 5 years old, please spread the word about us! We would love to have them join our playgroups! It's FREE! See our flyers for all the details!

🌞Judy Center students and families were invited to attend Field Day at Church Hill Elementary School on Friday, May 23rd. Ms. Stacey and Ms. Jenny set up a variety of games and activities for our young learners to participate in. We had beautiful weather and lots of fun.

The Queen Anne's County Mobile Library will make one final stop at the Judy Center Early Learning Hub at Church Hill Elementary School on Tuesday, June 3rd at 5:30pm during our FOAM PARTY! They will continue to visit our Judy Center in the fall! We want to thank them for all the smiles they bring to our littles!

👩🏻‍🌾*Join SNAP-Ed and explore foods and a garden activity with your little ones at the Judy Center on July 22nd during our Farmers Market Mania week!*

Trying a completely new food can be overwhelming and scary for young children. Before tasting new foods, explore them together with your child in a variety of ways. Engage your child in activities like cooking and gardening in order to expose them to food in many forms.🥦🍅🍗🧅🧀🥓🍌🥪

Please see the recipe for Sweet Potato and Black Bean Quesadillas below! It's nutritious and delicious!

The Judy Center Early Learning Hub provides resources to help parents and caregivers prepare their children for success in school and life. We serve children and their families living in the Church Hill Elementary School zone from birth through age five. We also serve children who reside anywhere in Queen Anne's County IF they have an IEP/IFSP.

We provide home learning kits, playgroups, home-visits, field trips, and parent/caregiver support. All of these services are FREE!

In addition, we can connect families to other services such as adult education classes, childcare support, healthcare services, food assistance and much more.
