The Sun & Moon Rooms

 
 

About

The Mothership offers a before-school program (The Sun Room) and an after-school program (The Moon Room) which is run by Launch Your Kid. By participating in The Sun and The Moon Programs, children will have the opportunity to collaborate, explore, move, craft, and play!

Registration typically opens during the summer and is first come, first serve based on availability.

Drop-off begins at 8 a.m. Children will be escorted to their classroom at 8:45 am. You can drop your child off anytime after 8 a.m. that is convenient for your family.

Sun Room Sample Schedule

8:00-8:15 – Drop-Off/Free Play
No rush in getting here right on time...we will just play with friends and have fun getting settled for the day!
8:15-8:30 – Morning Creative Movement
Each week we will have a new fun story to tell which we will act out! This will be followed by more creative movement activities.
8:30-8:45– Coloring/Craft/Storytime
We will spend time coloring or doing a small craft followed by a story that coordinates with the art activity.
8:50-9:00 – Walk children to their daily classroom

the moon room

Children will be escorted to the Moon Room at the end of the school day. Pick-up is at 3 p.m. prompt. Due to the nature of our program, please note that we are not able to offer a napping room. In our Moon Room, children from all of our Mothership classrooms are combined in a mixed-age classroom. While we do modify our activities to be appropriate for all ages that join us, these activities are geared towards children who have given up their afternoon nap and have adjusted to not needing additional rest. We are unable to provide a separate dedicated room where children can be put down for a nap and watched individually by staff.

We will explore fun themes with creative movement stories and activities as well as some fun fitness games to encourage hand-eye coordination and locomotor development.
