🎉 June is All About Play! 🎉

June is a month dedicated to celebrating the importance of play—for young children and adults! Play helps us learn, connect, create, and thrive at every age.

It's an especially exciting month for the Early Childhood Coalition of Stillwater and our partner, Stillwater Public Library.

🧩 June 6–7: Visit us at the Dancing Turtle Arts Festival, where we'll be hosting a children's play area full of opportunities for fun and exploration.

🎈 June 11: Join us in celebrating the International Day of Play, which also marks the launch of our new Let's Play initiative!

We invite families, caregivers, educators, and community members to come play, connect, and discover why play matters so much for healthy development and lifelong well-being.
