Eagan Parks & Recreation focuses on the social aspect of
children ages 2 to 5. Classes begin every 3 months -
September, January, March and June.
Me Two
Ages: 2 years old and a parent
Start your child's preschool experience with this
class. You and your child will work on art projects,
play with toys and meet new friends. A short group
time includes finger plays and a story. This is an ideal
dass for parents to meet other parents and for two -
year olds to see what school is about. Now you can
say "yes" when your toddler says, "Me, too ?"
Please note: This class is designed for children
who are age 2 and a parent /adult. Younger or older
siblings cannot participate.
Who is a preschooler?
•Children who are 3, 4, or 5 and have not attended
kindergarten may attend our programs.
•Toilet trained: children must be completely toilet trained
and able to independently use the bathroom. Children
are required to wear underwear, not pull-up type diapers.
(Exception - Me Two, Mornings Out, and Open Play Time.)
•The Me Two class is for children who are 2 and are
accompanied by a parent or guardian.
•Children must be the appropriate age when the program
begins.
Tiny Tots Recreational Activites
Ages: 3 to 5
Does your child enjoy art projects, games and songs?

nity to participate in group games, play outdoors and meet
new friends.

of the energetic three -year old. Storytime, art projects,

activities that fill each session. Classes are designed to help
each child develop listening skills, follow directions, and
successfully separate from the parent /guardian.
Fun with 4's and 5's
Stimulate your child's imagination through stories, art
projects, free play and group activities. Each class children
will have the opportunity to develop creativity, social skills
and self - confidence. A great class for those children

National Tennis Rating Program
To Place Yourself:
A. Begin with 1.5. Read all categories carefully and then
decide which one best describes your present ability
level. Be certain that you qualify on all points of all
preceding levels as well as those in the level you choose.
B. When rating yourself assume you are playing against a
player of the same gender and the same ability
General Characteristics of Various
Playing Levels:
1.5 - This player has limited experience and is still working
primarily on getting the ball into play.
2.0 - This player needs on -court experience. This player has
obvious stroke weaknesses but is familiar with basic positions for
singles and doubles play.
44
2.5 - This player is learning to judge where the ball is going
although court coverage is weak. Can sustain a short rally of slow
pace with other players of the same ability.
3.0 - This player is fairly consistent when hitting medium paced
shorts, but is not comfortable with all strokes and lacks execution
when trying for directional control, depth, or power. Most
common doubles formation is one -up, one-back.
3.5 - This player has achieved improved stroke dependability with
directional control on moderate shots, but still lacks depth and
variety. This player exhibits more aggressive net play, has improved
court coverage, and is developing teamwork in doubles.

and depth on both forehand and backhand sides on moderate shots,
plus the ability to use lobs, overheads, approach shots and volleys with

4.5 - This player has begun to master the use of power and spins and is
beginning to handle pace, has sound footwork, can control depth of

play is common in doubles.

Just for 5's

Is your child going to kindergarten in the fall of
2002? Just for 5's is a class that helps prepare children
for kindergarten. They will explore a letter of the

classmates during "show and tell." Each child enjoys
a turn as the class V.I.P. (very important person). This
class builds on earlier preschool experiences with
more detailed art projects and longer group time to
help practice sitting, listening and raising their hands.
This class is 3 days a week; each class is 21 /2 hours
long.
