Celebrating the Center of your Universe
When the center of your world is your family, all of your experiences — as a parent, for your child, as a family unit — can be celebrated at the CFEC. We have designed a safe, eclectic, stimulating and educational environment that empowers you as a parent to enrich your family and have fun while doing so.
Learn. Socialize. Grow.
We tackle all aspects of raising a family — from the social needs of parents to connect with others, to a resource center to help you stay abreast of topics that are important and relevant to raising a healthy and happy child, to educational and fun programs for your whole family.
"Best Place to Spend Time with Family"
Classes + Workshops
The heart of our Center is our classes and workshops designed for parents, children and for your family at every stage from prenatal to preteen. You'll learn from our experts in an enriching environment dedicated to quality learning through play.
Our classes at the Cincinnati Family Enrichment Center focus on the development of the whole child. We believe in a multi-sensory approach to enhance the early development of the child’s brain. Since 85% of brain development occurs within the first three years of life, it is imperative to stimulate infants and toddlers minds through a variety of creative means. Classes are designed to encourage cognitive, language and motor skills by addressing the visual, auditory, tactile, and kinesthetic needs of the developing child. As an added bonus, all of our classes occur in a fun-filled play oriented environment that encourages parent/child interaction.
