Sensory and Social Play 

Children will have the opportunity to take part in social free play while engaging in sensory exploration.  Guided by Amber Chaves, OTR/L, these early learners will be gently led to explore new textures, practice developing fine-motor skills, and use their emerging language to express their feelings, practice turn-taking, and share with their caregivers and friends. This class is for children 15 months to 5 years old.
