If you are interested, we will be happy to provide signage and a box. This event is a fun and educational opportunity for families to come together and learn about child abuse prevention and to celebrate safe children. There will be food vendors, games, activities, and resources available for parents and children. Local children performing and engaging speakers. The Children’s Museum of the Upstate will have the Imagination Playground. Imagination Playground’s big blocks are an innovative playground equipment system that transforms any space into a play space that encourages learning, social development, movement, and, above all, fun. We encourage everyone to join us for this important event, and celebrate safe children while we help spread the message that child abuse is preventable. Let’s come together to Celebrate Safe Children! For more information, please contact Laurens County First Steps at erable@laurens55.org or 864-984-8130.
