You are your child’s first teacher!

During this stay-at-home period, Pomona’s Promise is providing an array of ideas and resources to help you be creative and active with your little ones.  Parents and families who engage in their children’s learning at an early age will help them to be ready for kindergarten and beyond.  These resources are available through a cell phone, computer or tablet.

¡Ustedes, los padres, son los primeros maestros de sus hijos!

Durante esta época cuando es necesario que nos quedemos en casa, Pomona’s Promise ha formado una colección de recursos e ideas para las familias con niños de edad temprana.  Los padres que promuevan la enseñanza temprana de sus hijos los ayudarán a estar listos para el kínder y más.   Estos recursos son accesibles por medio de un celular, computadora o tableta.
