We are looking to have open play at GiGi's Playhouse during the summer break . The program would be two hours long and would take place two day during the week. The volunteer responsibilities would include engaging with the children to get them active. helping with special activities (water play, sand play) when we have them, helping serve snack (usually in the middle of the program), and helping clean up the Playhouse after the program is finished. This is just meant to be a fun play time for parents and children with Down syndrome and their siblings during the summer months.
