Many thanks to the Haines Woman’s Club for its continuing support of early childhood education in our community! With its financial donation, plus an anonymous donation, the next session of “Play with Purpose” will have funding for materials for take-home projects and books.
These projects for parents with their children encourage expanding vocabularies, enriching lives and developing healthy brains. The next session will be Saturday, April 18, at the Head Start building. The session for parents with their children ages birth to 2 years is from 10-11 a.m., and parents with their children ages 3-5 years will meet 1-2 p.m.
It will be a fun day of movement, literacy and craft projects with teachers Alissa Henry and Samantha Clay. For more information, call 314-0335, and please be sure to thank members of the Woman’s Club and Chilkat Valley Community Foundation for their grant funding that made this program possible.
