Extension Office to offer Entertaining Little Ones Workshop

From Dylan Gentry, FCS Agent
Adair County Cooperative Extension Service

FCS Agent Katelyn Squires will lead a workshop designed to help you entertain little ones at NoonCT on Tuesday, April 16, 2024, at the Adair County Extension Office.

No matter how long you have been parenting, everyone runs out of ideas for keeping little ones, or big ones, entertained. When your child cries, "I'm bored" or "There's nothing to do," it is not always beneficial to run to their rescue with an activity you just learned of from the latest blog or news article. FCS Agent Katelyn Squires will share tips on positive activities to do with young children. Come prepared to take notes on structured playtime and research based online activities that foster learning. No RSVP Required. Children are welcome to attend.

The Adair County Extension Office is located at 409 Fairground St., Columbia, KY, across from Lindsey Wilson College.
