We know how important the first three years of school are to the success of your students.  

We also know how important you are to those first few years.

That's why we're super excited to let you know that Kinders Can is back in 2021!
And if you teach or work with Pre-K, Kindergarten, or 1st grade, 
Kinders Can is designed just for you! 

It's all about joining together with other preschool through 1st grade teachers, coaches, and administrators in powerful conversations about preparing your students for their future. 
So mark your calendars now to join us at Essdack on December 10 at Kinders Can! 

Ready to get signed up? Yay! Use the button below to start the Registration process.

Still thinking about it but want to stay updated with the latest? 

(But don't wait too long! We're limiting attendance due to COVID restrictions - we'd hate for you to get stuck out in the parking lot looking in at all the fun.)

The Schedule & Sessions

We're super excited about our Kinders schedule!. You've got breakout sessions throughout the day - all designed around making sure you walk away smarter. Pick from ELA, Social Emotional, Science, Numeracy, Literacy, picture books . . . you won't go wrong with any of these! (And don't forget the awesome all day long Make It / Take It session!)

We've also got session descriptions. If you're interested in those details, head over here to get a bit more info about each session.

The Goodies

One of our favorite parts of Kinders Can! is connecting you with awesome tools and resources! So it's always been a tradition that you leave with door prizes, giveaways, and a Goodie Bag full of awesome stuff. (Spoiler alert. Everyone walks away with a picture book in their Goodie Bag!)

It's our way of saying thanks for all you do!

The Make It Take It Space

Okay. Maybe we have a lot of favorite Kinders Can parts. We also love our Make It Take Space! And this year, we're gonna love it even more because this year all of our Make It Take It activities focus on picture books. 

How cool is that?!
