Pathways For Parents

Due to construction our Math Everywhere at East Longmeadow Public Library is canceled for tomorrow 5/18

April showers bring May museum passes! Our latest addition is Davis Farmland, a delightful children's farm located in Sterling, MA. Think of it like an outdoors children's museum with lots of things to play with and on, so many animals to interact with (including feed!), a water park, and even an apple orchard during the Fall! Be sure to check Davis Farmland's website for more information and pictures of everything to do!

**Adults must be accompanied by at least one child aged 12 or younger**

Check out the Davis Farmland museum pass at East Longmeadow Public Library to receive discounted admission prices for up to 6 people!

All museum passes can be found on our website:

When people talk about kindergarten readiness, academics tend to get all the attention. But the skills kids really need to be successful in the classroom come long before worksheets.

Let's break down the foundational skills that support learning, participation, and independence, including:
• regulating emotions and calming the body
• transitioning between activities
• using the bathroom and washing hands
• managing clothing and lunch containers
• attending, listening, and following directions
• sharing, waiting, and taking turns

These are the skills that help kids function in a classroom—and they develop through play, routines, and supportive experiences over time.
