Join us for a multisensory book and storytelling session for all children who learn best through sensory play. *Registration required* Recommended for 3-8

*REGISTRATION REQUIRED!* Please register one time for each child. Space is limited.

Each fun original story has an educational component and an inclusive message. The storytelling sessions are interactive, with sensory props and storyboards used to engage the young audience with gentle sounds, scent, touch, and sight accompanying the story. The multi-sensory books are enjoyed by children of all abilities, so siblings are welcome too!

This program is presented by ReadAbility, a nonprofit organization run by DMV area high school students.

For ages 3 and up.

Registration is required. Registration opens two weeks prior to the event.

In this monthly program with the Metropolitan Ballet Theatre, kids ages 2-6 and their grownups will participate in an engaging creative movement-style program in connection to a chosen story of the day read aloud in class.

Children will focus on stretches, gross motor movements, and get a peek into basic ballet technique, all while expressing themselves creatively!

Class involves the use of music and fun props including dots, cones, and scarves.

At least one grown-up should be in attendance with a child/children.

Each class is 45-minutes long. Participants should wear comfortable clothing that is easy to move in.
