Toddler Connections Playgroups
Ages 15 months - 2.9 years
Toddler Connections (TC) is a seasonal playgroup for toddlers age 15 months to 2.9 years. Classes are led by seasoned teaching staff, including BOPN co-Founder Sara Murray in JP/Roslindale, Carrie Thordarson in Malden, and Mandy Slavik in Milton. Children are accompanied by parents or other caregivers. Families connect with the outdoors and one another, while learning about nature-based early childhood education. We engage children through song, reading nature-based stories, and free play.
Benefits of Outdoor Playgroups
Toddler Connections offers little learners a safe space to explore and engage with the environment.
Your child will benefit from regular socialization with a group of peers in the comforting presence of their parent or caregiver. Parents appreciate spending time with an experienced educator, who serves as a resource regarding preschool, parenting, and more!
