November Activity Night at New Beginnings

At New Beginnings, the kids have a lot to be thankful for. For most of these kids, they have a safe home for the first time in their lives (or at least in quite a long time) and they now have the opportunity to be adopted by members of the Birchwood Isle Community.

November's Activity night focuses on two things: Being thankful for the things these children have been given that they might never have had without New Beginnings, and learning to prepare a meal together (something that's usually fun for most kids!).

This month we're going to be doing things a bit differently than we did with the October Activity Night. Each child is going to be placed into a group with their legal guardian, who will help them to prepare the Thanksgiving dish of the guardian's choice. Groups will consist of one adult with up to five children and threads will be completed with rotational play. All characters at New Beginnings are required to participate.

November provides an excellent opportunity for the children to get some time to spend with other people in their group as well as with their guardians, getting to know them. The age groups will be mixed, allowing for social opportunities with a variety of different ages. 

The Activity Night will continue through the end of November, and new characters can be added to the existing groups right up to November 30th, so if this sounds like something you'd have fun doing, please come along and check out Birchwood Isle Family Discipline Role Play.
