Today was such a special day at The Robey! 🦖 It was our last official indoor session on the season and we celebrated by learning about dinosaurs!! 🦕 Our Compassionate Learners came in Dino outfits and with the Dino toys, and were exceptionally awesome listeners during our stories! Each kiddo made their own Dino puppet!

🦖 Thank you to for hosting us nearly every Sunday the last six months! We love being at The Clever Coyote so much! Your staff is the greatest!

🦕 Thank you for sponsoring today's session at The Robey!! If you don't already, give them a follow and pop into their shop on Milwaukee in WP! Best record shop in Chicago!

🦖 And of course, thank you to our dedicated families! Without you, our programming isn't possible! We love and appreciate you!

🦕 Catch us next Sunday at at 9am or 10am for stories, art, and vegan snacks!!! We can't wait!

Happy Friday! ☀️

Great News! You can now become a CFY+M Monthly Member! 🐝 Becoming a CFY+M Member is one of the easiest and most beneficial ways to help us build a more compassionate world. Our monthly donors help us ensure programming always runs smoothly and efficiently! We have set up different tiers to show you how your donation helps cover programming costs. Whether you have a child of your own who attends programming or you want to cover costs for someone whose family can't afford it, your donation makes an impact!

⭐️ At CFY+M our goal is to make our programming accessible to as many children and families as possible. Since the beginning, our programming has always been donation-based. We encourage families to contribute what they can rather than viewing our programs as "free". Donations help cover the cost of books, art supplies, vegan snacks + juice boxes, computer paper + ink, lap desks, yoga mats, and any other supplies needed for our program to function.

⭐️ We work with over 120 children per week during the indoor season and then over 200 during the outdoor season. Currently we are at The Robey on Sundays and at three library locations during the week, but in just two weeks we will be at WPFM and Andersonville Farmers Market! Right now our team is working overtime ensuring we are prepared for our outdoor season. If able, please consider becoming a CFY+M Member! Whether you pick a tier we created or opt to pick your own monthly contribution, it all makes a difference! 💛

Today was our Earth Day lesson at The Robey! 🌎 We read two great books that talked about how we can take care of the earth and support others who live on it. Each Compassionate Learner came up with six ideas of how they can play their part! 💧🚲🌱 We ended class with yummy animal crackers and a scavenger hunt!

🐦‍⬛ Special thank you to for sponsoring today's lesson! Our sponsors make our programming at The Robey possible! Be sure to go check out Handlebar! Incredible food! Amazing vibes! Great patio to bring the whole family, or go to for a date night when the kiddos have a sitter!
