Early Childhood Family Education is based on the idea that parents provide their child’s first and most significant learning environment and parents are their children’s first teachers. The programs works to support parents and caregivers and to enhance their ability to provide the best possible environments for a child’s learning and development. Barnum Community Education offers a variety of Early Childhood Classes. Registration for fall 2023-2024 opens April 1.

BARNUM — Well, with the ice and snow on Monday, Feb. 27, looks like March is coming in like a lion. On a good note, that means it will go out like a lamb … I hope.

We are busy planning summer here at Barnum Community Education. I’m excited to announce that we will have pickleball, the start of disc golf, a bus trip to the Twins Game, wwimming lessons, and so many more classes, events and programs for kids through adults!

Some upcoming Barnum Community Ed happenings include:

Chanhassen Dinner Theater: “The Prom”

Join us as we board a Minnesota Coach Bus and head to Chanhassen for a day of fun-filled adventure! "The Prom" is a book by Bob Martin and Chad Beguelin, music by Matthew Sklar and lyrics by Chad Beguelin. Throw on a corsage, grab your dance partner, and throw up those jazz hands because ... you belong at the prom!

We will stop at the Stacy Kwik Trip on the way down and at Tobies in Hinckley on the way home.
