Interactive Early Learning Drop In Centre, November 18—25

The Interactive Early Learning Drop In Centre will recognize “children’s right to basic needs; clothing, nutritious food, clean air and water, to be loved, sleep and have stuffies to cuddle with” by providing a healthy snack to the children and families attending, all week long.

The Drop In Centre will also recognize “children’s right to peace, where every child has the right to participate in peaceful gatherings and the freedom to love and be friends” by providing activities that support a children’s sense of peace from the “inside out” with calming activities and toys as well as special consideration given to creating  a peaceful environment.
