PARENTS LIKE TO PLAY, TOO! |
 Learning through play is one of the most effective ways of learning. Just ask the CMSB Ambassadors. Our Exhibits Committee recently invited the CMSB parent support group, the Ambassadors, for a morning of play. Joe O'Connell, President of Creative Machines, challenged the parents to brainstorm ideas for interactive exhibits. Working in teams, they were tasked with using a random assortment of materials to design an exhibit according to a specific set of parameters. The teams worked feverishly to come up with unique exhibits that met the requirements. At the end of the morning, each team presented their whimsical exhibits to enthusiastic cheers. |
