Fun at the Parent Link Center

So I thought I would show some of the cute kids that I watch at the Parent Link Center in Stirling. We have a fantastic program that has great classes for parents, and families. The class on this day was on Brain Developement, and they had a speaker from the University come out. We had about 11 moms attend, and Lisa and I had 17 kids from 2-5 that we were watching so the moms could enjoy the class. All in all with that many kids it went very smoothly. Hopefully next week we will have one more person to help us. Some of the other classes offered are an infant massage class, Baby and me, Family fun night, Daddy and Me, Teen night, and other parenting classes. It is great to have our own building in stirling and have all these great programs offered at no cost to the parents.  I ran the Daddy and Me class the other night, and it was great to see dad's bringing their kids to spend some play time together.

Callan was looking sick from all the playdough spaghetti he was making.

The sand pit is the big hit. Trouble is keeping the sand inside.

Everyone was playing together really well that day.There are some days when we get them chasing each other down because they want what the other has. I couldn't do it without Lisa's help.

With so much to choose from they can usually find something they like to do

Max was hanging out all by himself.

Becca used to cry everytime her mom came but now she has a smile on her face, and is used to all the other kids. She is such a petite little thing. She makes me smile all the time.

These two munchkins just keep me hopping. Libby has to help aunt Tricia with snack time and Finn just wants to play dress up with all the big kids and half the time they won't let him play. Darn it! He was happy digging in the sand this time.

All in all I really enjoy doing the child care for the Center. It is fun when the kids see me in Church and point and say "Hey You!" Like I know you. You play with me all the time. They put a smile on my face, and make my day.
