First Fall Session of Treasure Trunk Program at Brenda’s House

Our first Treasure Trunk session of this season was delivered on September 28 with the Babies in the Story (BITS), Kids in the Story (KITS) and Kids in the Kitchen (KITK) components delivered by our JLC volunteers to a house full of children.  What a splendid time we had at this Treasure Trunk session!! With 12 children present, it made for a lively night.
BITS, lead by Tammy Figol with Marie Starich as her faithful assistant, engaged both babes and moms in books and song. Toes were tapping and hands were clapping!
Elaine Tsekouras read, "Caps for Sale" for KITS and then the children followed up the story by making their own caps. Glue, stickers and jewels were everywhere!
Yummy yogurt parfaits were on the menu for KITK. Nicole Nodolf & Jessie Seymour had the kids chopping and spooning and eating. Even a few parents joined in.
Fall Provisional Velvet Matheson floated between the parfaits and caps and helped both run smoothly, including a quick save of a leaking sink in the kitchen!
If all this sounds like the splendid but meaningful fun it is, please sign-up to volunteer for Treasure Trunk at Brenda's House. We'd love to see you there!
The 11 future sessions of Treasure Trunk for this year will also be delivered at the Brenda’s House facility located in the SW neighbourhood of Killarney.
