PLEC Time (Ages 0-6 + Adult) Play, Learn, Experience & Con- nect This is a great new free drop-in program that will provide connec- tions for both you and your child. These informal parent and tot drop-ins will include an education- al or skill development activity for the kids (with a focus on physical literacy skills and outdoor play) and a short community resource awareness session (i.e. upcoming Island Health clinics, family events etc.) for the adults.
