Our eighth Treasure Trunk session, held at Brenda's House on March 7, was a great success! It was a busy night with lots of children, all of whom seemed to thoroughly enjoy themselves. Several were repeat customers who were looking forward to Treasure Trunk and added to the lively atmosphere.
Kids in the Arts (KARTS) started the evening creating rain sticks. Everyone was so enthusiastic that the event started ten minutes early! KARTS was led by Melanie Tewksbury and assisted by Marla McCutcheon-Grant, Jen Cox and Jocelyn Egden. The 15 children assembled rain sticks out of materials that can be found around the home. Many of the children showed their decorating creativity with stickers, markers and ribbons. After most had finished, they sat in a circle and played with the sticks for ten minutes.
Kids in Motion & Music (KIMM) was led by Emily Roback and Nikki Stevenson. They led a game of "Freeze" where we had some of the boys show off their ability to do the "worm", played hot potato with one and then two "potatoes", created what looked like a human puzzle called "tickle box" and then wrapped up with some stretches.
Babies in the Story (BITS), led by Tammy Figol and assisted by Christina Murez, had the mothers and babies listening to engaging stories and rhymes and singing along.
Sign up today to be a part of this terrific program! The four remaining sessions of Treasure Trunk for this program year will be delivered at the Brenda’s House facility located in the SW neighbourhood of Killarney.
