Infancy to Independence
A cooperative playgroup for children ages 0-5 and their parents
Family Gatherings
Twice a year all the families in I to I gather together for a pot-luck. Once in November for "Friendsgiving" and once in June for the "End of the year party". Everyone enjoys good food and good conversation. It is a chance to meet other members from the other playgroup days and really ties the community together.
​
Summer Play-dates
We do not meet during the summer; however, parents often set up informal play dates throughout the summer so that children can maintain their friendships and parents can get together, talk, and enjoy the beautiful weather.​
We also schedule several meet-ups during the summer that we share on our calendar so other local families in the can meet up with us at local playgrounds and splash pads to broaden our community.
​
Clothing Swap
Once a year I to I hosts a clothing swap. Everyone brings in clothes and toys that have been out-grown and crowding our closets. Anything not swapped is donated. This event is also open to the public.
​
​Community Outreach
Each semester the community outreach coordinator seeks out activities for us to volunteer at so that our community can give back to the greater community we live in. Examples of previous outreach activities include:
-
Food Pantry Donations: collecting canned food and pantry items for donation to The Bristol Lodge Pantry in Waltham.
-
The REACH Beyond Domestic Violence holiday gift program
