Another great week! Getting families to read and craft together ☁️ @ParentChildPlus @EarlyFrps @FRPSsupt

Love my job!!

We had our first ever PC+ virtual play group and I’d say it was a success, loved seeing the smiling faces we missed so much!! Can’t wait for the next one ❤️ @FRPSsupt @EarlyFrps @ParentChildPlus @MassEarlyEdCare @DarleneHyson @Jrodzm @BanvilleKerrie

We loved our field trip to the barn this week and all the friends we made! Here is Barron and Miss Darlene reading “The Animals of Farmer Jones” together. Full story is our FB page! Have a Great Weekend Everyone! @ParentChildPlus @MassEarlyEdCare @FRPSsupt @EarlyFrps

As states open up from stay-at-home orders, we must not forget the disproportionate impact that coronavirus continues to have on so many families and communities. Check out the checklist on ways you can support the hardest hit communities. For more info:parentchildplus.org/take-action/.

Meet Djeneba. She is a ParentChild+ Early Learning Specialist, who has been supporting families during this crisis, and well before it. Djeneba and her son are graduates of ParentChild+, and we are honored that she wanted to work with us to share what she has learned.

This is one of the many reasons we are so proud of our families and staff at ParentChild+. Even during challenging times, parents like Lisa and sites like the Lynn Family Network in MA, still make special moments come to life for children like Caleb. #parentchildplus #community
