Every Third Saturday of the month please join us for a program that features:

· dimmed lighting

· sensory toys

· a smaller number of participants

· an adapted circle time with stories, rhymes and songs

During this program there will be opportunities for open play and a chance to connect with other families. The circle time portion of this program is offered in the last 20 minutes of the session. A family member must be present for the duration of the program.

This program provides a welcoming environment and respects the needs of children from 18 months to 6 years who live with developmental disabilities and/or autism, or who show signs of a developmental delay.

Build simple prototypes and test them! There’s no wrong prototype – each attempt is a learning experience. Engage with concepts like kinetic energy, simple machines, speed, distance, friction, and more as you create an experiment. Presented by STEMquest. Ages 4-6. Registration required.
