WOW Bus

Climb Aboard the Words on Wheels (WOW) Bus and learn through play!  Oceanside Building Learning Together’s WOW Bus program is for children from birth to kindergarten age and their adult.  Join us for healthy snacks, playtime, songs and stories.  Look for the big blue bus, you’ll find it parked at various locations in the Oceanside area.

We ask that you fill out a registration form for your child/children.  Registration forms can be picked up on your first visit or printed off here.  Please bring a copy of your child’s birth certificate to go with your registration.  Birth Certificate copies can be brought into any of our early learning programs or we can copy it for you at our Munchkinland centres.
