About This Event

Family Rhythm, Rhyme & Movement is an interactive program with experienced facilitators. It’s a wonderful Saturday morning activity and a great way to connect with other families in the community.
Please take note of the following important details: Due to space restrictions, this will be on Zoom to allow more participants to join.
The program runs for 6 consecutive Saturday mornings, 10-11 AM on Zoom. (Due to how Eventbrite is set up, it looks like a 6 week-long event. It's only once a week for an hour! )
Class size limited to 12 families. Both parents are welcome to join, as are grandparents and other family members!
THIS EVENTBRITE POST IS FOR PRE-REGISTRATION PURPOSES. ONCE YOU 'GET YOUR TICKET' PLEASE SEND AN EMAIL TO US AT PROGRAMS.FAMILYPLACE@GMAIL.COM. We will need your full name, phone number and your child's name and age. (This will not be shared with anyone, it is just for registration purposes).
No experience necessary! Nuri & Dawn Zoe will teach songs, rhymes and stories for pure enjoyment; songs and rhymes can also help with parenting during often stressful transitions such as getting ready for daycare, leaving the playground, bathing, mealtime and so on. You will expand your repertoire and hopefully experience a calming connection through sharing what you learn with your children. No child is too young to attend the program; if they sleep through it all, that’s okay! Whatever you learn you can enjoy with them when they are awake again.
