Between those middle-of-the-night feeds and milestone questions\, it’s natural to feel both overwhelmed and amazed—sometimes in the same moment. While you’re marveling at your little one’s daily discoveries\, you might also be wondering if you’re doing enough\, or wishing for a community that truly gets what this journey is like. That’s exactly why we created The Parent Nest: A guided play & connection series\n \nCreated specifically for infants and toddlers (from sitting age to 18 months)\, this four-week series takes place in the serene morning hours before the museum opens. In this distraction-free setting\, your little explorer can safely investigate their world while you connect with other parents who understand exactly what this stage of life is like. \nEach 45-minute session nurtures your child’s natural development through research-backed activities that: \n\nBuild Neural Pathways Through Movement: As babies roll\, crawl\, and reach\, they’re not just exercising—they’re forming crucial brain connections that support physical coordination and spatial awareness.\n\nDevelop Pre-Language Skills: Our musical activities introduce rhythm\, repetition\, and simple signs\, laying the groundwork for communication long before first words appear. \n\n\nEnhance Sensory Processing: From our “Building Beginnings” exploration to “Splish Splash Discovery” play\, each tactile experience helps your little one understand their world through touch\, sight\, sound\, and movement. \n\n\nFoster Social-Emotional Growth: Through guided interactions\, babies learn early social cues while parents discover ways to support emotional development during daily routines. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin us for a four-week play-based program designed to support your baby’s development while building connection with other caregivers.\n\n\n\nFind your community of support: Early Development Classes in a Museum Setting\n\n\n\nFree for members!\nFree Children Under 12 Months\n$35 – Non-members per session (We will email you a link to pay) \nRegister: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdZCbj1Erk9_lQ9nTWjnOB9GhNICc-SgDPacPEagj0jyTkH_A/viewform \nThank you to Musical Me for sponsoring our program.

SUMMARY:"Newsies" A Story of Grit and Leadership
DESCRIPTION:“Newsies” A Story of Grit and Leadership\n7pm:  February 13\, 14\, 20\, 21\, 27\, 28; \n1pm: February 15\, 22 & March 1\n\n\n\n“Newsies” isn’t just a musical — it’s a story about grit\, leadership\, and what happens when everyday people decide they won’t be pushed around anymore.\n\n\n\nSet in early 1900s New York\, it follows a group of young newsboys trying to survive and make a living. When big-time newspaper owners raise prices and squeeze the kids even more\, these boys don’t just complain… they organize. They unite. They lead.\n\n\n\nAt the center is Jack Kelly — a kid with big dreams of something better — who steps up and rallies others to fight for fairness. And with the help of a determined young reporter who believes their story deserves to be told\, their movement gains real momentum.\n\n\n\nWhat I love about this story is simple: it’s about courage. It’s about sticking together. It’s about young people realizing their voice matters.\n\n\n\nIt’s high energy. It’s powerful. And it’s a reminder that leadership doesn’t require a title — it requires heart.\n\n\n\n Get your tickets @ https://www.onthestage.tickets/…/693b77c78be7604be6871787\n\n\n\n\n\n This Tony Award-winning musical brings the historic 1899 newsboys’ strike to life\, highlighting a story of resilience and community. As an all-ages production featuring talent from across our local community\, it offers a compelling experience for theatergoers of all generations.\n\n\nCLICK HERE TO PURCHASE TICKETS\n\nRotating Casts: To showcase as much local talent as possible\, the “Newsie” roles are performed by two different casts (The Sun and The World). Check the “Cast” page on the website to see who is who!\n\n\nParental Guidance: Recommended for ages 8 . While the show offers an inspiring message for families\, it includes mild period language\, stylized stage combat\, and a 2 hour runtime.
