Join us at the Kid's Corner at The Green Baby Fair.  We will have a building station, arts and crafts, and space to have the little ones get their wiggles out.  This is a great place for one parent to come let the little ones have fun while the other enjoys the many vendors and workshops the fair has to offer.  If you have ever wondered what The Nest is all about, come on out and experience us at The Green Baby Fair.  The schedule of events at the Kid's Corner is as follows:

10:15-10:30 AM    	Story Time with the Nest
		
Children’s literacy starts as early as infancy; join us as we engage your little ones with the wonderful world of books.  Listening and participating in story time helps children build/develop language, literacy skills, and attention span, and calls for spending special time with their parent.	
		
10:30-11:15 AM	 The Great Cloth Diapering Change by Mother Earth Diapering
 
Set a world record for the most cloth diapers changed at one time!  Don't have any cloth diapers -- don't worry!  We will have diapers for you to use while you're here to participate.

11:30-12:15 PM   	Family Yoga/Yoga Tot demo class with Carly Orshan of Shine on Kids

Understanding and maintaining a balanced emotional life allows children to thrive in their day-to-day.  If a child can balance their emotional state, their attention, behavior, and educational skills increase.  This doubles if the interaction is with their parent. We are offering Yoga as a way for kids and their parents to engage in fun and build these important developmental skills. The classes will run in 20-minute increments

12:30-2 PM	 	“Cooking with Kids” 

Let your little one feel like a chef while experimenting with new foods.  In this class little ones will have the opportunity to create a dish with the wonderful staff of Cooking with Kids Miami, which will help them build esteem, practice fine motor movement and build concentration and attention span.  The classes will run in 20-minute increments and are limited to 8 children at a time.

2:00-3:00 pm  How to Raise Emotionally Intelligent Children with Alina and Lina 


3:30-4:30 PM	   	  Baila Conmigo! (Dance with Me!) demo class with Adriana Alvarado

Dancing and movement is a way for children to feel uninhibited and express creativity and emotion.  This class allows you and your child to experience the free expression of dance.  It employs Latin rhythms, a fun mix of salsa, merengue, and reggaetón, to promote gross motor and problem solving development, as well as, an opportunity to join in fun with your child.

4:30-5:30 PM 	Daddy and Me: Drumming Circle with Alan Reyna (mommies are welcome)

Did you know that research has shown that drumming can benefit your immune system, reduce stress and according to one study, decrease student drop out?   Come and experience a drumming and rhythm circle with your little one.  Alan is trained by Remo Health Rhythms and has facilitated many rhythm circles in the community.  

5:30- 6pm  Goodbye Circle and Story Time

All fun days come to an end, let us help you whine down your little one so you can have a successful transition home.
