Imaginative play helps your child to process the world around them. Explore this week during our YALA Artsplay!™ as we use drama and play to create zoo animals from the Audubon zoo with our bodies. Learn how to engage your child’s creative side through imaginary play.

This free 6-part workshop series is made possible by The Helis Foundation. Our workshops provide engaging arts-based activities designed to instruct caregivers on how to use the arts at home to promote early learning. Lessons are conducted by certified Louisiana Wolf Trap Teaching Artists, who have expertly crafted multi-sensory experiences that foster children’s natural curiosity for learning. After each workshop, children and their caregivers can download our digital Connection Cards for tips on how workshop activities can be continued at home. Watch all the videos in the series again by following us on YouTube (@youngaudiencesla).
