Messy Play as a Development tool… by a trusted community resource

Tiny Tots members, as you know we’re trying this year to also keep you up-to-date on other fun activities for you and your family through our community board and work with other community programs.  Here’s one you should check out!  http://birthto3.org/parents/groups/Squishtivities

Playing is learning! At Squishtivities®, you and your 2-1/2- to 5-year-old child will experience adventures through games, arts and crafts, music and ‘messy’ play.

With your involvement and the guidance of a professional parent educator, your child will explore:

• Cause and effect

• Gross and fine motor skills

• Cognitive skills

• Creative expression

Then, you can duplicate these activities at home.

Squishtivities® meets weekly. The new group begins Sat., May 5, from 10 – 11:30 a.m. and continues for 3 weeks. A fee is charged for this program.

To enroll or for more information, call 541-485-5211 (toll-free in Lane County: 1-888-485-5211), Mon-Thurs 9 am-noon, or send us an e-mail.
