Family Engagement Events

Oshkosh Early Learning hosts a variety of engaging events for families to attend. Our family events encourage foundational learning that allows children to further develop their understanding of educational concepts through active interaction with their environment. Young learners develop skills in core areas through free-play and structured activities that the whole family can enjoy together.

Oshkosh Early Learning collaborated with UW-Extension to host a Block Party for Oshkosh Early Learning families. The event featured several stations - each providing a unique variety of blocks - for families to play with as an opportunity to enhance STEM-related skills. Block play is used to develop children’s understanding and skills related to math, physics, early engineering, creativity, social skills, physical skills, and many more subject areas.
