Play 2 Progress Mommy (& Daddy) & Me classes are built to help moms and dads understand and support their children's development. We talk about how our sensory systems work and how they develop over time, while exploring fun, play-based ways to give that development a boost - both in class and at home. In each class, a pediatric occupational therapist helps parents and babies explore age-appropriate gross and fine motor challenges together. By the end of class, our goal is that parents understand their child’s emotional, cognitive, physical and social development as well as how to support it using the thing their children do best: play!
Topics include:
- Sensory play
- Gross motor and fine motor development
- Coordination
- Social and emotional development
- Transitions and parent separation
- Parent support and education
Parent & Me classes are held weekly for 8 weeks; all classes are 45 minutes in length.
At Play 2 Progress, we recognize that all babies develop at slightly different rates - and that's totally normal! Our classes are organized by developmental milestone, rather than by chronological age, so you should choose a class based on what feels like the right fit at the time the class begins. Note that we start pre-crawlers at about 3 months old; if you have any other questions, feel free to contact us - we're happy to help!
