From the Children’s Room:
- There are two weeks left of our Family Winter Wellness Series at The Children's Room! Hope you can come join us for one, or both, of these caregiver education events:
- Thursday, March 28 (6pm-7:30pm), TBPS Cafeteria
- Movie Night for Grown Ups, Storytelling for the Kids
- Maroni Minter (from the Let's Grow Kids campaign) shares a powerful new documentary, NO SMALL MATTER, about the latest science around child development in the early years, and how the care we provide can affect it. He'll also give us a quick catch-up up on the big changes to the early care and learning system being proposed in Vermont's new legislative session, and talk about ways average folks can help steer the movement, because primary caregivers are the primary advocates for our young children!
- Children are invited enjoy a free evening of stories (and play) downstairs in The Children's Room with babysitters. Pizza & salad provided, all.
- Saturday, March 30, (10am- 12pm), TBPS Cafeteria
- "Meeting the Needs of Young Families"- a Whole Family Care Fair
