Caring for Children, Together

Do you care for your grandchildren? Do you care for nieces, nephews, or other young family members? Do you take care of a friend’s child? Are you a stay-at-home mom or dad? 4C of Southern Indiana, Inc. has special programs to support the important work you do for children.

4C Play & Learn groups, for children birth to five and their trusted adult, provide activities designed to promote school readiness in a playful atmosphere. FREE 90-minute sessions, at various locations around Evansville and Henderson, help children develop their bodies, language and literacy, problem-solving and cognitive skills through play. Groups also provide plenty of opportunities for children to practice getting along with others.

What’s it like at a 4C Play & Learn group?

• 60 minutes of unstructured play time for adult and child to play together followed by short group time with songs, finger plays and movement.
• A large variety of activities to choose from including blocks, pretend play, sensory, fine motor and large muscle play.
• VIP guests from around the community
• Opportunities for adults to meet other adults who care for children
• Take home activities & materials to extend the fun at home
