St Vigeans Church DD11 4RD

Toddlers

Thursdays, 9.15-11.15 a.m in St Vigeans Hall

---

A warm and friendly welcome is extended to all those who come along. There are those who come to introduce their toddler to the company of other children whilst they have a cup of tea with some adult company; those who like to escape the hustle and bustle of daily life, including housework; Grandparents who come to enjoy the quality time with their grandchildren; and those who would otherwise feel quite lonely and isolated, home alone with a small child.

Toddlers has a wide range of activities to choose from with plenty of toys to play with, crafts to make, play dough to mould, puzzles to put together and books to read. We all come together in a circle to sing and have learned a collection of animal themed songs. The toddlers all sit together at their small tables to eat their snacks whilst the parents or carers enjoy a cup of tea and a chat.

Everyone at toddlers  has fun: parents and carers meet new friends whilst their toddlers develop social skills, imagination, creativity, fine motor skills and language.

Louise McFarlane posted this on the Toddlers' FaceBook page:
When my nephew Olly - who used to attend Toddlers at Knox’s - was born, he had oesophageal atresia, a rare birth defect that affects a baby's oesophagus. His oesophagus wasn't connected his stomach, meaning he couldn't swallow at all. He had complex corrective surgery at Edinburgh Children’s Hospital when he was just days old.
Olly is now 6 years old and has a charity place to run in the Edinburgh Marathon (junior race) on 25th May for the Edinburgh Children’s hospital charity.
The care and support provided by the charity and hospital was amazing when he and his parents needed it, and he hopes to raise some funds so families in similar situations can be given the same care and support.
He currently has a ‘Name The Teddy’ game sheet, with a prize of a craft studio voucher for 2 (Broughty Ferry). Cost is £1 per square.... if anyone would like to buy one, contact Louise.
