The Poop Museum***: Wednesday, February 19th at 2:00pm
Learn many fantastic, fabulous, and fun facts about human, animal, and insect poop, many of which truly amaze and surprise! Just a few of the poopers that visitors to the Poop Museum will meet include: the world’s messiest pooper, the animal that has poop-attack powers, the animal that uses poop as protection, the rainbow pooper, the animal that has to hold its poop ALL winter long. The Poop Museum is educational but also full of laughter. . .because, well, our subject is poop! Susie, the poop expert, has found a wonderful way to blend solid science with the hilarity that comes when talking about poop.

​AND the 3RD SATURDAY of every month at 10:30am

Playing with Purpose is designed to help parents/caregivers gain a better understanding of the importance of play and learn how to be active participants in this important work. Play stations are set up to allow for one-on-one time as well as to work on fine and gross motor skills and socialization.
During each session parents and/or caregivers are given relevant materials and articles on how to continue to support and build on these concepts at home. Parents/caregivers are then encouraged to use the items shared to “Play with Purpose” with their children.
