In this fun and relaxed class, students will get to interact with peers who share their love of all things car or truck! Best of all, low to no prep for grownups!
Each meeting will begin with a show and tell of each learner’s current favorite car or truck. Then, we will all participate in a fun activity together. We will share stories, explore our senses, and even participate in brief science or STEM experiments.
