EPU Program

Play and Grow

The Play and Grow Program at EPU provides play groups for families who are currently participating in any of EPU’s programs. Play and Grow enrichment groups help children to socialize with peers and build relationships.

Infants and toddlers learn best when they are interested, supported and nurtured. Play and Grow provides positive interactions and play opportunities to help infants and toddlers build relationships with other children and adults. Age-appropriate toys and activities are available and early literacy is encouraged by routines of singing, finger play, repetitive play, sign language and relationship building. The children’s experiences are self-initiated and supported by Play and Grow staff members.
