What is PACT Calgary Playgroups and Why Would I Join?

Share |

PACT is a unique non-profit program that offers Calgary families:

  • One program for you and all your children, aged 0-5, to attend together for one low price.

  • Friends for you and your children! The opportunity to socialize and connect with parents and children in surrounding communities.

  • Thought-provoking discussion groups for parents focused on developing resiliency and respectful parenting practices. (Topics fall under the categories of: Child Development and Growth; Play; Parenting Styles; Discipline; Self-Esteem; and Effective Communication and are selected by the participants each session.)

  • A stimulating supervised child-directed play environment that supports your child’s development through activities such as play dough, painting, crafts, floor toys, dress-up, books, puzzles, building blocks and more!

  • Opportunities to work on building confidence, curiosity, intentionality, self-control, relatedness, communication skills, and cooperativeness in your preschoolers - readiness skills for school and life!

  • Encouragement, support, and a safe place to grow and develop.

  • An opportunity to enjoy song and story time together each morning.

    "I like how I feel when I leave here each week. I get ideas, great company and wonderful coffee!" - Jodie, Participant

    "I love that I can bring all my kids and they can paint and do water play without it messing up my own house, and its a place they love to come to and has something wonderful for me - conversation and coffee." - Lily, Participant

    We met at PACT 18 years ago and we moms and daughters are still friends!

    PACT is a program where you can ease separation with your child in baby steps. Your child is only down the hall from your parent's group and the PACT teacher will work with you and your child to make separation easy for both of you!
