SUMMARY:Parent Child Workshop (Fall Session) (ages 0-3 with parents/caregivers)
DESCRIPTION:Registration is required and begins at 9am on Monday\, August 
 31\, for the Fall Session of the Parent Child Workshop (September 
 14-October 12\, 2026). Please individually register EACH parent\, each 
 child\, and each infant who will be attending.\n\nThe Parent Child Workshop 
 is for children 6 months to 3 years old and their parent(s)/caregiver(s). 
 Siblings 5 years and younger are also welcome. Spend time together\, play\, 
 experience art activities\, and meet new friends. Community Resource 
 Specialists informally discuss child development\, speech and hearing\, 
 nutrition\, and play and movement.\n\nWorkshop format: \n\n\n	The workshop 
 is a place to connect with other families and community members while 
 spending time playing with your child. During unstructured playtime\, 
 families are encouraged to move about the room exploring different types of 
 play\, including dramatic\, construction\, language\, gross motor\, fine 
 motor\, and an art/activity station. While playing with your child\, you 
 can informally discuss any concerns or questions you have with that 
 week’s Community Resource Specialist. \n	After about 50 minutes of 
 unstructured playtime\, we have about 5 minutes of clean-up\, where 
 everyone helps put toys back into bins and closes the lids. \n	After 
 clean-up time\, we will have a brief circle time to sing songs and rhymes 
 together before the workshop ends.\n\n\nGuidelines for the 
 workshop:\n\n\n	The Parent Child Workshop is designed to give you or your 
 caregiver a special time with your child for playing\, reading\, and 
 spending interactive quality time together.\n	Please handle situations 
 concerning your child in a quiet\, gentle manner.\n	Remain with your child 
 at all times. \n	With the exception of bottles necessary for infants\, no 
 food is allowed in the room. \n	Library staff will be in the area at all 
 times to offer assistance as information and resource specialists.\n	Please 
 stay home if you or your child is sick.\n\n\nWhat to expect this 
 week:\n\n\n	This week’s Community Resource Specialist focuses on 
 nutrition. \n	This week’s art/activity station will feature scooping\, 
 pouring\, touching\, and playing with rice.\n\n\nLibrary staff may 
 photograph or videotape portions of this event and its attendees for use in 
 promotional materials and on social media.\n\nPlease individually register 
 EACH parent\, child\, and infant who will be attending.
