How long should a Tadpole meeting last?
The meeting plans in the Tadpoles manual suggest a minimum of 60 minutes and a maximum of 90 minutes. The length of time you choose depends on the circumstances. If your Tadpoles group meets on a weeknight, the shorter time is preferable. Most preschoolers are not able to stay up very late. If your group meets on a Saturday morning, a longer meeting time is possible. The best way to decide this is to meet several times and see what works best for the children.
