June 8: Aprons on, screens off!
June is OUR screen free Living for children and teens MONTH!
Today's screen-free activity is baking or cooking something with an adult!
Whether it's decorating biscuits, making sandwiches, mixing ingredients for a cake or preparing a simple meal, cooking together gives children the chance to learn new skills, explore different foods and enjoy quality time away from screens.
Activities like this can help support communication, creativity, confidence, and fine motor development. Following recipes, measuring ingredients and trying new techniques also encourage problem-solving and independence.
One of the best things about cooking is that everyone can play a part. Some children might love mixing ingredients, while others enjoy decorating, choosing toppings, helping to serve the finished food or even laying the table. No matter how they get involved, it's a chance to work together, have fun and feel proud of what they've created.

Pride: Pose, Power & Pride: Queer Culture Now and Then

This interactive 60 minute Pride Month session uses the iconic series Pose as a launchpad to explore the radical roots, resilience, and cultural influence of queer and trans communities — especially Black and Latine voices from the ballroom scene.
Through games, storytelling, and creative reflection, participants will uncover how language, identity, and inclusion have evolved, and why terms like transsexual, queer, and Trans+ mean different things to different people.
The session invites teams to move beyond corporate checkboxes and into a deeper, more joyful, and more respectful understanding of LGBTQ+ identities — with a few voguing vibes along the way.
