Dear Kid's Creek Families,

 

There are Superheroes among us every day. You may not recognize them though. They do not "leap from tall buildings with a single bound," fly, super smash buildings, or shoot laser beams from their hands (although admittedly they might try)......... Read more here

What's going on at Kid's Creek?

Tax Free 

 

On Saturday  August 10th, Kid's Creek was proud to put on our First Annual Tax Free Weekend Event from 9-12. This event was a wonderful opportunity to give parents the chance to take part in the tax free shopping weekend while their kids played with familiar faces and some new ones! We were so pleased and excited to have 19 kids in attendance, supported by 8 members of the Kid's Creek Staff and 15 wonderful  volunteers. We all had a blast doing obstacle courses in the gross motor gym, making pasta necklaces  and bag painting in the fine motor room,  interacting with lots of new textures in the sensory room, singing songs and playing instruments in the music room and playing fun following direction games in the language room.  We are so grateful to everyone who participated in the event, both young and old, and are looking forward to our next opportunity to serve the wonderful children and families here at Kid's Creek Therapy.
