Coming Up!
Have An Adventure with WarmLine
The Sacramento Adventure Playground in partnership with WarmLine is open to youth with disabilities on the first Saturday of the month -- rain or shine! This is a designated time the youth and their siblings to enjoy the facility exclusively. The playground is a place where youth can use raw materials to create projects and play spaces that reflect their own ideas and vision. A parent/guardian must be present. 
End-of-Summer Sprayground Fun
Come beat the heat with WarmLine. Join us for a fun, family day at the park and mingle with some families in your community. No food or drinks will be provided so bring a sack lunch and have a picnic.  Bubbles and c halk will be provided.  This event is for all ages.
For Your Information
Take a Minute
Songs and Rhymes that Build Readers Songs that use movement or fingerplay, like The Itsy-Bitsy Spider, can be a great way to draw very young children to interact and follow a sequence. This site has videos of native speakers demonstrating interactive songs in English, French, Spanish, Amharic, Arabic, American Sign Language, Italian, Russian, and Viet.
