Deaf and Hard of Hearing Play Group ~ 3rd Friday of each month @ Parent to Parent from 9:30 - 11:00 am
|
If you have a child with a hearing loss and would like to connect with other parents who also have a child with hearing loss, this is the group
for you. We are small and informal, but hoping to grow as we reach out and meet others. We invite Deaf adults and their kids (when they
can come), so we have great sign language role models to help us with our own signing. It doesn't matter if you sign or not. The purpose is
to meet, share, play, and have a good time! Feel free to bring toys, books, or snacks for your child, or to share. Also, bring a blanket for
floor time if you have an infant. Please contact Susan Bakke with questions: bandicoot@wingsspan.com/(206) 393-7627
Sibshops and the Teen & Young Adult Groups will NO longer be meeting...please see the Resource page for resources

FREE Summer Gardening Programs ~ WSU Master Gardeners

WSU Master Gardener volunteers teach children gardening and environmental science education through fun and creative
activities. Activities are designed to promote a love of gardening, develop an appreciation for the environment, and cultivate
the mind. The bounty raised from the garden will be donated to the Thurston County Food Bank and flowers give to local
nursing homes. Parents or guardians must accompany children at all times during the program. Please click here for a program
schedule.
