The activity schedule will include arts and crafts, games, music, woodworking and outdoor play. Also planned are local field trips to the library and recreation center.
"Our program is geared towards four through seven year olds,” said Ms. Harris. Sorsum Corda School uses the same building for classes from September until early June and Susan Lann emphasized that children in the day care program would be able to use the school’s equipment and materials. .
The day care center will accept toddlers for two hours every morning during the three-day, Monday through Wednesday, operation beginning June 13.

To date, Ms. Harris said she’s had no trouble finding volunteers. “A lot of parents want to stay and watch their children.”
