BABY STORYTIME
Wednesdays, during the school year from 9:30-10am
Little ones (ages 6 months-2 years) and their caregivers are welcome to join Baby Storytime! This weekly program introduces songs, rhymes, movement, and books to babies and their caregivers and introduces important pre-literacy skills along the way! This drop-in program is a great way to socialize with other babies and caregivers.

Toddler Tinker Time
Tuesdays, during the school year, 10:30am during the morning play session (9am-Noon) or at 2:30pm during the afternoon play
Join us for a weekly program that emphasizes the importance of tinkering! Tinkering helps little ones develop fine motor skills, increases problem solving abilities, and is an open invitation to foster peer relationships! What is tinkering?! Tinkering can range from taking something apart and putting it back together to making an open-ended sculpture, to playing with “loose parts” and special science tools. We will have different activities every week and some old favorites will pop up again and again.
