Play & Learn group
Every Wednesday morning from 10-11:30. A weekly, drop-in facilitated playgroup for caregivers and children, birth to 5 years old. Free!
Open play time, art projects, structured movement or song time, stories, parent support/coaching, and time to connect with other adults. Facilitated by Christine Wood.
The purpose of Kaleidoscope Play & Learn™ groups is:
- To provide caregivers with information, resources, support, and connections to promote optimal development of the children in their care
- To build connections, friendships and a circle of mutual support among people who care for children
- To provide children with intentional, developmentally-appropriate learning experiences with their peers and caregivers
- To instill in children and caregivers the love of – and quest for – life-long learning.
Kaleidoscope Play & Learn™ takes a whole child – whole family – whole community approach. Children are members of families and communities, and they are affected by the well-being of their families and communities. Kaleidoscope Play & Learn™ works toward supporting families and communities where children can thrive and grow.
