Kindergarten Readiness: Mini Wonders and MEGA Wonders
CMON offers two programs to help prepare you child for Kindergarten- MEGA Wonders and Mini Wonders.
MEGA Wonders is a 90-minute drop-off, kids-only class at CMON, with a hands-on approach to learning through play, helping to lay a strong educational foundation for kids ages 4, 5, and 6 years old.
Mini Wonders is a 45-minute class, with new themes each week. This program guides your young ones to practice essential skills that enable the transition from PreK or home-based learning to a formal kindergarten classroom, designed for kids ages 3, 4, and 5 years old.

Art Workshops
Is your elementary age artist eager for an engaging and elevated art experience? Look no further than CMON’s Art Workshops to explore artists, mediums, techniques, materials, and genres. All classes will challenge the creator with more focused and detailed creations from impressionism to modern art. Each class will include a take-home frameable piece of art.
Classes are 60 minutes on Tuesdays & Fridays from 12:30 – 1:30 p.m.
The program takes place during the school year and is $5 for CMON members and $10 for all other guests.
Guests who are not yet CMON members will need to pay for admission to the museum and the program fee.
*When registering, please only register the child participant. This is a drop-off activity. Parents may leave the museum and return one hour later.
Grown-Up and Me Art Workshop
Grown-Up and Me Art is a class for grown-ups and their little ones (3 years +) to explore art together! Using safe, child-friendly materials, this class fosters bonding through interactivity that sparks imagination, enhances fine motor skills, and encourages social skills. Each class features a different art process project, giving both children and grown-ups the chance to explore new artistic materials, techniques and ideas. Plus, grown-ups will help your little ones create a unique art project to take home and cherish. All are welcome to share the joy of creativity and bonding through art!
Classes are 45 minutes on Mondays from 9:30 – 10:15 a.m.
The program takes place during the school year and is $5 for CMON members and $10 for all other guests.

Homeschool Workshops
Join us on Fridays for Homeschool Workshops, designed for students in Kindergarten through 5th Grade! These 45-minute hands-on programs foster curiosity and discovery in support of what students are learning at home. There will also be a special time to focus on social and emotional learning too!
Workshops are 45 minutes on Fridays from 9:30 – 10:15 a.m. or 2:00 – 2:45 p.m.
Program is free for CMON members or $10 guests to the museum. Guests who are not yet members, will need to pay for admission to the museum and the program fee.
To allow participants to focus, only registered students and their adult helpers will be allowed in the workshop. Due to the popularity of Home School Workshops, failure to attend two consecutive classes will result in removal from future registered workshops.
