There was some amazing creativity, planning, and problem solving going on at the Center with this fort! Construction involved crawling, rolling, climbing, sliding, and pulling heavy pillows which supports motor skill development. A cozy place to play is a great idea on a cold winter day!

“Play is often talked about as if it were a relief from serious learning. But for children play is serious learning. Play is really the work of childhood.” ― Fred Rogers

It's that time of year for sniffles and sneezes. A friendly reminder to please keep your kiddos home if they're not feeling well. Please let your therapist know if you're unable to make an appointment to avoid a no-show fee. 🤧🤢

When kids dive into pretend play, they’re doing so much more than having fun. They’re exploring who they are, making sense of the world, and working through big feelings in a safe way. Imaginative scenarios build social thinking, problem-solving skills, and confidence - plus, it’s pure fun, fun, fun! 🧸 ✨🧠
