Bellevue College’s Parent Education Program will hold an open house for a class targeting toddlers and their parents May 10.

The class is from noon to 1 p.m. at May Valley Alliance Church located at 16431 SE Renton-Issaquah Rd. in Renton.

It is designed for parents to meet faculty, get more information about classes and learn how to enroll.

“In all of our classes, we offer active learning experiences for young children and their parents, plus training in techniques parents can use to improve their relationship with their children,” said Lisa Allen, the program’s director. “It’s fun because parents and children play and learn together, which also makes our classes unique.”

Kids and parents attend the same class and each class focuses on several distinct age levels, ranging from infants through seven years of age.

The curriculum is designed specifically for each stage of development.

Classes are offered in Bellevue and the surrounding area.
