Books, Blocks and Balls is an interactive parent-child event that allows the community engagement in fun learning experiences providing information about child development, developmental screenings, and community resources.
The free event includes:
- activity stations revolving around books (emergent literacy),
- blocks (emergent math and fine motor skills) and
- balls (gross and fine motor and problem-solving skills).
On the surface, children are just playing, but in reality, this play encourages learning. Learning happens as families confidently interact to support their child’s development in preparation for kindergarten.
This event is supported through a partnership with United Way of the Coastal Bend's Success By 6, West Oso ISD, ECI Project Niños, and Texas A&M University's College of Education & Human Development.
