Community Calendars
Great Start recognizes the importance of community involvement and the value of opportunities for families to learn and grow together. We have created these community calendars as a way to share timely community events with you. If you know of any events please take time to add them to our community calendar or forward the information to gsevents@dsisd.net. Please encourage the agencies and organizations that you partner with to do so as well so we can have a comprehensive one stop shop for early childhood information in our communities.
Please note that there are guidelines for submissions and each will be reviewed before posting

Horizons Playgroup
December 4 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm
$6
Playgroup is for families in the area with children birth through 4 years of age. The playgroups provide an opportunity for children and parents to play in an environment that is supportive and nurturing. Morning playgroups are offered in the communities of Houghton, and Mohawk.
What to expect at playgroups:
1. Free Play Time, where children can choose to play with any toys they like.
2. Circle time, where the children are encouraged to sit in a group circle and sing songs and do finger plays.
3. Exploration time, when children learn new things by free creation-finger painting, coloring, drawing.
4. Snack time, when children sit at the table with the other children and have a healthy snack.
5. Clean up time, where both the children and their parents are required to participate. The snack is put away, the toys put where they belong, and the exploration area is tidied up.
