| 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
