Chicago Illinois Playgroup! |
Downtown/Lincoln Park/Lakeview Playgroup
getting started!
If you are a JOH family living in the city and looking
for a way to connect with other JOH families for playtime and group
opportunities, or to plan group cultural awareness activities for children whose
lives began in other countries, read on!
Christie Young has started a playgroup
that meets at Church
of Our Savior, 530 W. Fullerton
(just west of Clark) The Church is
conveniently located on the 22 Clark and 36 Broadway
stops, and walking distance from the 151
Sheridan and 156 LaSalle and the
Brown Line Fullerton stops.
They are a great sponsor of an open, non-religious,
free playgroup in their newly renovated
nursery/playroom. The Playgroup is new and has abundant
openings that we'd love to dedicate to JOH families in
the city.
The playgroup meets Tuesdays, 2:30 - 4:30pm,
Wednesdays, 9:30am - 12, and Thursdays, 2:30 - 4:30pm. The room is large,
carpeted, and stocked with books and toys. The church
location is secure, warm (in winter) and cool (in
summer). Ample parking available just outside the entry.
This playgroup has saved many a mom from insanity during
the "NOTHING TO DO IN THE AFTERNOON" hours. Little sibs
who can nap in strollers/car seats are welcome to come
too anerd snooze in a quiet part of the nursery.
Email Christine Young and help start some fun JOH
family events! Contact her at
crabbiappl@aol.com for more information.
