Drop-In Friendly Toddler Time at the Farmers Market!
About Toddler Time
Toddler Time with Amethyst is a play-based early childhood program brought to you by Kidzeum, designed specifically for toddlers ages 1–3 and their caregivers. This week, we're heading outside! Join us at the Old Capitol Farmers Market on Adams Street, right in front of Whimsy Tea, for a morning of hands-on fun in the Kids Corner.
Each session supports the whole child through hands-on sensory exploration, fine motor development, early cognitive growth, and emotionally responsive adult-child interactions. This program is grounded in an understanding of toddler development, honoring children's need for movement, repetition, autonomy, and sensory input as they learn.
Toddler Time at the farmers market is free and open to all - no admission required.
