Parenting Class with Roleen @ NSW
PARENTING CLASS: at NSW 6:30pm-8:30pm with Roleen March 6, 2012 I was lucky enough to come to Marilyn’s last class of her parenting series.

In the Forest Area in the East Wing, the children reflected on the need for a sun. Payton: “It would be pretty in the forest with a sun. It would shine out and make the animals fly, not just butterflies, dragonflies too. It warms up the animals, it makes them unfrozen.” Ophelia: “We need a…
