Books, Blocks, and Balls: A Fun and Educational Community Event for Families

Books, Blocks, and Balls is an interactive parent event designed to bring the community together for a fun and informative experience focused on child development. With activity stations centered around books (emergent literacy), blocks (early math and fine motor skills), and balls (gross motor skills and problem-solving), the event turns play into powerful learning opportunities.

The beauty of Books, Blocks, and Balls lies in its flexibility. It can be tailored to suit the needs of the community and venue size, offering one station or multiple. On the surface, it seems like simple play, but in reality, it fosters key developmental skills. Parents are encouraged to actively participate with their children, and many appreciate how easy it is to replicate the activities at home using everyday items like books, blocks, and balls.

The event emphasizes child-led play, allowing children to explore at their own pace. Whether they focus on one station or move freely between activities, it’s all part of their learning journey.

Additionally, Books, Blocks, and Balls introduces parents to Help Me Grow, offering services like developmental screenings, care coordination, and access to community resources in both English and Spanish.

This event is more than just play—it’s an opportunity for families to learn, grow, and connect!
