About this Event

Hi friends! Come hang out with us at Richard Burges Library (9600 Dyer, Suite C, El Paso, TX, 79924) for "Rockin' Tykes: "Yum, Yum, Fun!" as we explore different kinds of foods, and other fun activities related to foods! This coming Saturday, November 14th, from 11:00am - 12:00 noon :)

Tickets are FREE, courtesy of the El Paso Community Foundation. ONLY the PARTICIPATING CHILD needs a ticket. But every child must be accompanied by an adult who will be participating with them throughout the entire hour-long session. Event is most suited for participants 18 months to 4 years of age, though some younger and slightly older kids may also enjoy the activities. Attendance will be capped at 20 children.

ROCKIN’ TYKES is a one-hour music-filled workshop for children (ages 18 months-4 years of age) and their parents/guardians using music and other art forms. The class is run by speech-language pathologists and other providers specializing in early intervention. It aims to help children reach age-appropriate developmental milestones and encourage parent-child and peer-to-peer interaction, while simultaneously promoting the arts. We strive to host the event at different community locations to expose families to child/art friendly spaces throughout the city.

***Photography and Video will be taken during sessions and this will be used for recaps of the event, as well as for promotional materials. ***
