We visited the Play Lab, where children aged 2 to 5 years old come to play while their parents work out. We observed how some children played at the Play Lab and interviewed them about what they would like to play with at the Play Lab.
Then, we discussed how we would like to re-design the Play Lab by bringing things the Play Lab kids want. We made a plan of how we would re-design the Play Lab.
Day 2
We built and made things that we will put into the Play Lab. We will install these items in the Play Lab on Thursday.
In the afternoon, we went outside to play with loose parts. We also made some games that we will play with kids from the Play Lab.
Day 3
We briefly visited the Calgary Public Library that is inside VIVO.
Anya and Victoria from National Sports School came to visit us. They shared how long they have been horseback riding, what they do to stay healthy with their busy schedules, where they have been to train and compete, what their days look like, etc.
We played in the VIVO gym.
We made nutritious snacks using oats, honey, Wowbutter (peanut free), cocoa powder, chocolate chips, coconut shreds, and dried fruits. We tried some and we will serve the rest tomorrow (Thursday) to different people who will come to celebrate VIVO's last year of running the Healthy Living School program. The Healthy Living School program will be run by Shane Homes YMCA, starting in the 2020-2021 school year.
We also made some smoothies.
