Your child’s development depends on you!
La Piñata del Aprendizaje was founded by and for Latin families whose first language is Spanish, we believe in the power of community to create opportunities for children and families to feel welcome, learn and succeed together; programs are offered in Montbello, Globeville/Elirya/Swansea and Thornton.
Our Mission
La Piñata del Aprendizaje is on a mission to create an early childhood education program that engages parents in the education of their young child through a theoretical and practical way.
By respecting and enhancing parents’ ability as their child’s first teacher, the hope is that parents and children will be better prepared to transition their children into preschool.
About La Pinata Del Aprendizaje
Programs offer connection to community resources, information and materials to promote your child’s learning at home and a welcoming community!
Founded in 2018 as an innovative, intergenerational and welcoming approach to early childhood development. La Piñata del Aprendizaje offers hands on opportunities for parents and caregivers to learn alongside their young children. The co-founders believe that together as a community, we can ensure that our children enter pre-school ready to succeed; and that families feel prepared to continue their involvement in their child’s education.
Let’s start your child’s development journey together!
At La Pinata del Aprendizaje, we employ the ASQ3 questionnaire to support the growth and development of children aged 0-5 years old.
What is Ages & Stages Questionnaires (ASQ)
The Ages & Stages Questionnaires®, Third Edition (ASQ®-3) is a developmental screening tool that pinpoints developmental progress in children between the ages of one month to 5 ½ years. Its success lies in its parent-centric approach and inherent ease-of-use—a combination that has made it the most widely used developmental screener across the globe.
Evidence shows that the earlier development is assessed—the greater the chance a child has to reach his or her potential. Learn more about ASQ-3.
