PLAYGROUPS & STORY TIMES
2019-2020
Playgroups and story times are great ways to get the kids out of the house and around other kids. It also is a way to meet other parents and a chance at some adult conversation! The Great Lakes Bay Region has many organizations who have created playgroups and story times for just this reason.
