We were so overjoyed to see the outpouring of supp We were so overjoyed to see the outpouring of support for our @oldspaghettifactory Read Aloud and Fundraiser. Thank you to all who spent this morning hearing us read aloud and dance today!

We read:
-Noodles for Baby by Jane Gillespie @beachhousepublishing 
-A Delicious Story by @barneysaltzberg

It was so nice to see all of our regular toddlers It was so nice to see all of our regular toddlers and their older siblings today for Keiki Time at @pearlridge 

We selected social-emotional learning as the theme, guiding the story through identifying, labeling, and sharing how emotions feel and look like, plus possible ways to cope when experiencing strong feelings.

Coincidentally, it was the last Keiki Time event for some of our longtime attendees because they start their first day of school next week. 🥺 I think we were the ones who needed to hear the books today. 😭😭😭 

Executive Director Dannah Barnes curated the reads:
Happy Hippo, Angry Duck by Sandra Boynton
Feel Calm by Andy Pizza and Sophie Miller
The Pigeon Has Feelings, Too! by Mo Willems
I Need A Hug! by Aaron Blabey
Broken by X. Fang
