Families First is a home away from home for parents and caregivers with small children. My little ones took Practically Preschool classes, played in the playspace, had lunch in our snackroom, and then went home to nap. I am happy to see that is still happening everyday here. We have a warm and nurturing community with a playspace that doesn’t close, 2 classrooms, a baby playspace, library, and a snack room with a fridge/microwave/high chairs and toddler seats. We have art, music and story time drop in classes.

Families First’s Practically Preschool is the perfect, affordable bridge to preschool and pre-K for children ages 12 months to 3.5 years. Practically Preschool introduces toddlers and nursery school-age children to their first school experience, and classes are designed using an enriching playgroup approach with STEM activities, arts and crafts, and music at the core. The small class sizes (6-8 maximum) mean kids get individual attention, and the excellent teachers offer a nurturing environment full of guidance, encouragement, and support. Contact Families First for more information at info@familiesfirstbrooklyn.org or 718-237-1862, or visit the website.

Families First, a non-profit organization created by parents for parents, has been serving Brooklyn families for nearly 40 years.

FunFit is an interactive multi-sport program for ages 1-7 and its main purpose is to help children develop physically, socially & cognitively. FunFit is structured to be age appropriate, encourages participation & focuses on progressive learning through what we call the 3 R’s; Refine, Rehearse & Repeat. We put an emphasis on the child’s individual needs & interests while engaging them in a variety of movement experiences, through play, drills & games.

We teach children the fundamentals of gross motor-function, sport skills, healthy-living, sportsmanship & teamwork. The most important benefit we offer is that children gain confidence & self-esteem. Participants are progressively challenged as the program evolves, acquiring the skills necessary to become well-rounded athletes.

The programs we offer include:

  • Multi-sport

The Fashion Class is a children’s sewing studio specializing in the most fabulous and fashionable classes, camps and birthday parties for kids and teens. Students learn to use a sewing machine to design and sew real, wearable clothing.

Courses run after school and on weekends and end with a professional fashion show where students sashay down the runway in their own creations. The best part is, all supplies are included so there is no extra work (or extra fees) for mom and dad!

Fashion camps run for all school breaks (like election day and spring break) and throughout the summer. Fashion campers not only sew, they illustrate fashion, create jewellry and go on fashionable field trips to meet designers!

Birthday parties at The Fashion Class are super fun! Party guests can sew a skirt, dress, pillow or even PJ shorts. Or we can put on a full fashion show complete with hair, makeup, stylish clothing and accessories. Once guests are ready for their show we turn the music up and the spotlights on so the birthday girl and friends can live out their fashionista dreams.

Our studios are near Bryant Park and on the Upper East Side.
