Lubec — “Friday Playgroup”
Playgroup for all ages (with their caregivers)
Every Friday: 10am – 12pm
At these mixed age events, children will have access to an impressive inventory of loose parts. Think milk crates, fabrics, cardboard boxes, retired electronics and so much more! Children are invited to create their own narratives and utilize items how they see fit, without an overarching agenda. The result is an engaging experience that builds confidence, strengthens critical thinking skills and fosters a child’s innate ability to play. Bring a snack, water bottle, and wear play clothes. Check the website for cancellations before attending.
