Winter Solstice Celebration at the Playscape at Ripley

The circle of seasons throughout the year is especially meaningful to children, who are so aware of the first red leaf, the first snowflake, the first little crocus poking up through the snow ... but sometimes our busy schedules make it difficult to take the time to
join them in their wonder and awe of the beauty of our natural world.  Concord Children’s Center, fiscal sponsor of the Playscape at Ripley, is offering a participatory, family-oriented event to mark the changing seasons, led by CCC teacher Patricia Collins. Participants will have the opportunity to play in and explore the Playscape, as well as join in a gathering circle to create a ritual of song and movement.  There will be instruments to play and a rainbow of silks to move with! Space may be limited, so please email CCC Executive Director Pat Nelson at ccc-pn@verizon.net or phone on (978) 369-3747 to reserve a spot for your family.  Playscape information: http://www.ripleyplayscape.org
