The Springfield Project is a safe and welcoming space where people from diverse backgrounds in our community can meet and receive support.

✨ Let’s take a look at our Startwell session from ✨ Let’s take a look at our Startwell session from last week! 
Startwell 

While the parents joined our Home Safety Workshop, the children were busy exploring, creating, and learning new skills. 

 We talked about keeping those "belly buttons moving" some children were navigating the small tricycles and chasing their peers through the tunnels. 

Building blocks and playdough creations were everywhere. We saw massive improvements in the children pouring their own drinks, and some of our newest friends even practiced chopping fruit with a knife!
