PlayEscapes (Several locations)

@ Locations throughout Regina

Dates: Weekdays, July 5 - August 13, 2010

PlayEscapes is a FREE summer come and go drop-in program offered by the City of Regina for children entering Kindergarten (must be 5 years old by December 31, 2010) through Grade 7. The program runs Monday to Friday from July 5 to August 13, 2010.

The program offers leader-facilitated play opportunities that develop and foster life skills, creativity, imagination, positive self-image and promote a physically active lifestyle.

PlayEscapes welcomes children and youth with disabilities. Participants who may need assistance during the program are required to bring an attendant.

Self-directed play is the key to the PlayEscapes program. Children engage in play they select by themselves, and are encouraged to explore and discover activities they enjoy most. This cultivates creativity and imagination while expanding children’s intellectual, emotional and social skills. Through self-directed play, children become more active and creative in the play environment while gaining a sends of freedom and choice.
