Join us in nurturing the growth of children and families in our area through engaging ,fun, and educational events.

 

Our community project is designed to give children and families in our area wholesome, healthy outlets, and promote creative writing & literacy.

 

We​ supportive a community that prioritizes quality time and personal development of our loved ones. ​

​

​There's not a single one of us that has all the answers to nurture children individually.

If asked, what kind of a community

you would want to raise your family in,

Most of us, would probably respond....

One that will allow my family and loved ones the opportunity to connect, thrive, and grow in a beautiful way!

To even attempt to understand every aspect of childrens' development,

we need to first be passionate about children and their well-being.

*Be open and willing to pull from others' experiences and knowledge.

*Listen to their tiny but valuable voices.

We simply need to provide what they need by slowing down and paying attention to what matters and their voice.

At Whole Child Happenings of Baldwin County, we  believe that when we do that, we let them know they are valued. When we educate ourselves with available resources, collaborate with others who have their own very useful  backgrounds and skillsets, connect with them on a very intentional level, we become so aware, so in tune to their needs, dreams, and goals, and eventually everything else we envision for them  has the opportunity to reach, stretch, and expand and  eventually come to fruition.

​

​

To the group of children of all ages that   joined us in the private events that we've    hosted.....

I love that you all worked together and expressed your individual interests.

You are a joy to witness.

Your support of each other is wonderful and your passion for creating and building is inspiring.

​

To the Mom who called after an event and mentioned her daughter had been

"feeling down" lately and expressed how happy she was to get out of the house and play w/ the group of friends...

-Thank you for the insight. 

This is why we do what we do.​​

 

 Please bare with us and understand that we have just built this new website to have in place as our very green inception is still a vision to blossom and grow. Clearly, It may be apparent that our passion is with children rather than technology and the components of building websites!

 We've recently registered as a non-profit. Our volunteer impact thus far has been offering complimentary events in our community for families, children, and grandchildren on a very tiny scale free of cost.

From the cutter box recycling event for dyslexia awareness month at the  mezzanine at the Spanish Fort Library, to public parks book readings, from organizing excursions to various local educational facilities, and other recreational fun outings, we are proud to have received such good feedback from the participating groups -even at the small level which we've been able to provide so far. 

We've been so pleased to have a handful of volunteers and chaperones willing to help with some events. Some retired teachers who have helped, an occupational therapist, and some of the parents who showed up and assisted and helped with the some of the activities. 

From bucket tractor train pulls to outdoor movie nights,  to ole fashioned sack races, bobbing for apples, to fun filled educational afternoons such as the

All-a-bot-it robot build & relay, magnet fishing, RC car race evenings, ice excavation & team word building,  to family nature scavenger hunts, etc.

Sensory exploration afternoons w/ homemade

"ice cream" contests where children were encouraged to explore their senses to attempt to discover the recipe all the while learning about the surprisingly wholesome ingredients. Others included our peanut ball dance & welcome calm play.

From reading nooks to music corners,  we've been able to provide  various outlets to inspire creativity, learning, healthy relationships, and community bonding.

Most  importantly,  I believe amongst anything else is to remind children on a regular basis that they are a priority.

​

​Our  dedication in our community reflects one of sponserships in both education, literacy, and enrichments for children.

 

From Whole Child Happenings inception, we have been thankful to have made such donations as literacy boxes that included books, hooked on phonics materials, learning mats, and stem related cutter boxes to some of our public schools. We've made efforts to bring awareness to learning tools such as pro scanner pens which have been proven to aid in a variety of ways for children in a classroom or home learning environment, as well as other beneficial aids however not yet added in to our local schools system at this point and we hope to see that evolve in the near future. 

In addition, a single platinum sponsorship was made through our founders 'families 'primary business to our local SFEEF organization

which is dedicated to the feeder schools in Spanish Fort Alabama.​​
