Mommy & Me [🧺 Picnic Pretend Play] – June 25th

June 25 @ 10:00 am - 10:45 am

Date: Wednesday, June 25, 2025
Location: Kerri’s Kids Play2Learn – 28 The Oaks, Roslyn, NY
Time: 10:00 – 10:45 am
Best for: Toddlers & Preschoolers + their favorite grown-up

🍓 Let’s set the (pretend) table and serve up some giggles!

From pretend sandwiches to playful “yum yum!” sounds, this class is all about using imagination to build real-world skills. During Picnic Pretend Play, your child will be invited to explore a world of food-themed fun — feeding dolls, preparing plates, and practicing playful back-and-forth talk with grown-ups and peers.

This session is a gentle favorite for kids who love routines, pretend play, or even just holding a “very important” banana.

🧃 What’s included in this playful picnic:

  • A mini indoor picnic setup with pretend foods, picnic baskets, and stuffed animal friends
  • Movement songs and music games that bring the picnic to life
  • Sharing games that support social skills and expressive language
  • Role-play prompts that inspire toddlers to “cook,” “serve,” and “taste”

🌟 Why pretend play is pure magic:
✔️ Boosts language through labeling, role-play, and conversation
✔️ Supports early social concepts like sharing, waiting, and turn-taking
✔️ Encourages flexible thinking and creativity
✔️ Builds confidence by letting kids lead the play

 

🧺 What to bring:

  • Just yourselves and your best imagination!
  • Optional: your child’s favorite stuffed animal to join the picnic fun
  • Clothes for crawling, sitting, serving, and stretching — it’s all hands-on!

🎟️ Your invite to the cutest indoor picnic ever
Every year, this class always sparks big smiles and even bigger pretend bites. Whether your child is new to pretend play or already “serving soup,” they’ll love this playful, cozy experience.

I later accepted a supervisory position as a Head Teacher at Central Park Early Learning Center, where I supervised 7 special education preschool classrooms, consisting of students with multiple disabilities. During this part of my teaching journey, I worked with teachers to implement and execute Individualized Education Plans (IEP’s) for CPSE and CSE meetings. I also helped guide families in locating the most appropriate learning environment for their child.

Realizing my passion to work with children and their families, I accepted a position as an Early Intervention Home-Based Service Provider at YAI/NYL Life Start, an NYC-based nonprofit organization. As an Early Intervention Specialist, my main goal was – and still is – building a close relationship with my  families and helping parents and caregivers to reinforce the gains made. I worked intensively with speech pathologists, occupational therapists, and physical therapists to help children develop skills in the home setting and the outside world.

My love for teaching and strong desire to create change, even in the simplest of tasks, is how Kerri’s Kid’s Play2Learn came to life!

Kerri’s Kids Play2Learn is a therapeutic social skills playgroup for children with developmental differences in Roslyn, NY. I currently offer social skills playgroups, as well as Mommy and Me classes. Classes are offered throughout the week and on weekends, depending on availability. I continue to consult with families, provide private home/school-based therapy for children, and provide 1:1 support for students attending mainstream programs.

As the saying goes – “A great teacher takes a hand, opens a mind, and touches a heart!”
