Infant & Toddler Play and Learn with Grace Ragaller
“We have loved attending Play & Learn to gain insight to educational and developmentally appropriate activities to do at home. Love the socialization as well!”
– Jocelyn, Asheville
Families can learn what to expect from their infants as they grow into healthy toddlers, learn preliteracy & group socialization skill building activities, discover the ways children learn through play, and meet other parents. The Infant & Toddler Play and Learn group was featured on WLOS’s Never Stop Learning Segment.
