Do you hear it each morning? The sound of birds returning and singing their joyful songs? We’ve heard cardinals and chickadees and robins near our home -- especially after it rains and we splash in puddles — and we look forward to joining the chorus with some playful music classes soon. Spring is just a few days away, and we’ve got several more indoor yoga and outdoor exploration events planned to get our bodies moving and connecting with nature.
Based on our spring survey results (you can still take it here), there is an appetite for afternoon and weekend programs, too, so we are hoping to add more opportunities as the season unfolds. We’re also previewing some awesome events where you can be the first to learn about registration and updates.
We’re looking forward to seeing you at these collaborative offerings and free community events! Unless otherwise noted, these are geared toward caregivers and kids ages 0-5. Registration is required in advance to book your spot! You can view the full schedule here.
Playful Acorns programs are shown in the colors above. There are several other local organizations holding awesome family-friendly events that might be of interest to you, too (circled)! Many of these events focus on nature exploration, true play, and process art. Remember to check out more events listed at Macaroni KID, local libraries, gyms, and more.
