We are a group of parents seeking to put to use our creative energies, our giving spirits, and our loving hearts. We are families who want to do more.

While our children play, we show them how to make their world a better place.

February - "Without a Purpose"

Yes, we had no agenda for this meeting. That was fine though because, for most of the kids, it was the first time they had met each other (and the parents too!). I truly expected there to be a lot more tears and tantrums but it went really well. We had 7 kids and 5 adults. The kids played well together. No kool-aid spills, no boo-boos, no behavior problems beyond a couple toddler re-directions (ahem, that would be MY child). It was very nice.

A few pix, I didn't take very many cause we were sitting around chatting. I didn't do a very good job getting good pix of each kid but, since I forgot to ask their parent's permission about posting, it's probably better this way.


Everyone's favorite toy was the car track that Aaron brought to occupy himself. Aaron, you were so awesome to share with everyone.
Yes, we all squished into the small space around the table, leaving the family room/play area deserted...go figure!



Both Olivia and Aaron were good sports about being the oldest but they would really like some 4-6 year-olds to play with!
So, next month...we need an agenda. Please email me or leave a comment with suggestions (that means anyone, not just playgroup people...if you have an idea, let me know!). Also, if you want to let me know about naptimes...I know a few couldn't make it due to prime sleeping time. We won't be able to work it out to hit everyone's needs but we can certainly try, and we can switch it up month to month, as well. With the weather getting warmer, we can start thinking about some outside activities. Hope to see everyone next time and thanks for coming!
