Early Childhood Connections Family Coaches hold several playgroups every week in locations throughout the Battle Creek area. Parents and caregivers are invited to all the playgroups each week to socialize and learn parenting skills. At Early Learning Toddler Playgroups parents and children will interact and learn together with trained Family Coaches. Playgroups are available in English, Spanish and Burmese (call a Family Coach to inquire about dialects).
Please see our Events Calendar for our current playgroup schedule!
