Tuesdays in June
On Tuesday mornings for the month of June, I'll be
running a special class for moms, dads, caregivers and
babies at the Inwood Hill Nature Center. We'll meet
from 9:30 to 10:30/45 am. Part I will consist of an
easygoing, relaxed movement class for the babies. It's
quite fun. We'll rock, swing and sway to music and
play with props and baby-safe instruments. Afterwards,
we'll sit and talk.
Come dance with your baby. Meet other
parents/caregivers. Get new ideas for parenting
challenges.
$10 suggested donation

I'll post reminders prior to each of June's Tuesdays.
But please mark your calendars.
Babies = 2 months to 1 year (ish). This is not a
hard-and-fast cut off. If your baby will dance in your
arms, come!
