Play Tots / Bringing Books to Life is a dynamic, multi-sensory experience where open-ended play meets the magic of storytelling. Designed for toddlers and their caregivers, this class is designed by early childhood specialists and pediatric speech-language therapists who create rich opportunities for learning through connection, creativity, and fun.
Each session begins with purposeful play that fosters sensory exploration, early communication, and motor skills in a warm, screen-free environment. Children engage with textures, sounds, and movement, building confidence and language in ways that feel joyful and natural.
The class then transitions into a carefully chosen story that comes to life through a wide range of hands-on, interactive experiences. We extend the story through play activities in every area, art, movement, music, dramatic play, building, and more, so children can connect with the narrative across all domains of development.
This class supports holistic growth: language, cognition, social-emotional skills, and creativity. Play Tots / Bringing Books to Life is more than a class, it’s an immersive, early learning journey that sparks curiosity, imagination, and a lasting love of stories.
An adult is required to join the class with the child.
