an answered prayer: a place to learn and play

Ever since Sofia was born, I have been praying for a program in our neighbourhood for babies and toddlers. Well, this week, just around the corner at an elementary school, the StrongStart Early Learning Centre began....
StrongStart is an early learning program for children five years old and under (yes, even babies!). Our community recently received a large government grant to fund this project, so all the books, toys, etc. are brand new.

It's a free, drop-in program for parents and their children (this isn't a daycare by any means- you are responsible for your child at all times) that runs every morning, five days a week.

Needless to say, I am one happy Mom! :o) I now have a place to take Sofia to meet other babies her age, a place where she can learn, play, and grow. Plus, I get a chance to meet other Moms in the neighbourhood!

Amen to that! :o)

Have a great weekend, everybody!
