Home Instruction for Parents of Preschool Youngsters

HIPPY Mission Statement

The HIPPY program empowers parents and guardians as primary educators of their three, four and five year old children in the home and foster parent involvement in school and community life to maximize the chances of successful early school experiences.

The HIPPY curriculum is cognitively based, focusing on language development, problem solving, and perceptual discrimination skills. Activities take as little as 15 minutes a day for the parent/guardians and child to complete. Learning and playing are mingled throughout HIPPY's structured curriculum as parents encourage their children to recognize shapes and colors, tell stories, follow directions, solve logical problems, and acquire other school readiness skills. Apart from building on the basic bond between parents and children, parents learn how to prepare their children for success in school and beyond.
