Children’s Services Roundup

Children and families in The Arc of Essex County’s Children’s Services programs enjoyed a variety of engaging and inclusive experiences in February, including:

  • Parents’ Night Out participants painting a Valentine’s Day craft and enjoying games and activities together on February 20
  • Communi-Play sessions on February 7 and 21 for children ages 2.5 to 5, offering interactive, play-based communication opportunities for young children and their families at Studio Arc (sign up for future sessions, offered at no charge to families, at bit.ly/communi-play)
  • Children’s Saturday Respite participants getting dressed up for a fancy (and sparkly!) dance party together on February 28
  • A variety of seasonal celebrations, including Valentine’s Day, Lunar New Year, and Olympics fun at Stepping Stones School (read the full story by clicking here).
