Wiggle, Giggle & Munch at Wellington School

Community: Daniel McIntyre
Start date: Wednesday, January 11, 2012
End date: Wednesday, March 14, 2012
Time: 1:00 PM

Begun as a pilot project of Communities 4 Families, Wiggle, Giggle & Munch is a drop-in program that offers parents and their toddlers and preschoolers two hours of active play and a healthy snack. The program is designed for families who face multiple barriers—families who, for any number of reasons, are least likely to have access to resources about physical activity and healthy eating. Wiggle, Giggle & Munch strives to provide those resources in an environment that is safe, fun, and accessible to all. Each session includes at least 40 to 50 minutes of physical activity such as active songs, games, and dancing, a series of activities designed to help children develop specific movement skills, a healthy snack, helpful messages about physical activity and healthy eating, activities for parents and children to do together, all while providing opportunities for participants to get to know one another and their community.

Wednesday afternoons from 1:15 to 3:15 p.m. in the MPR (signage on both sides of the school. Entrance is Beverley street past the gym).
