Stay and Play Drop-In Sessions
A time for children and their adults to get out into the community to enjoy fresh air, hands-on play experiences, a seasonal circle time, a snack and the companionship of other families. Thoughtful attention has been given to all of the materials available to the children.
Adults can participate with their child, or take a moment to step back and relax, work , or make phone calls while the attending children are guided outdoors by Heart and Hands staff. Younger siblings are welcome to explore, with baskets of materials just for them.
Stay and Play Families will be invited to all special events and camps, and may consider joining the Tuesday/Thursday Drop-Off Class in the future, which is conducted from 8:30am-12:30pm.

In the event of inclement weather:
You may want to reconsider dropping in if there is heavy rain, lightening, etc. that would cause us to stay indoors with the children from 9:30-11:30am. We do remain outside with the children for the full two hours as much as possible, so please dress your child for the weather.
