We started off the day making awesome and creative sock puppets, then we were treated to an amazingly silly family puppet show performed by the talented Steve Petra, and we finished off the day with a session of Drop-In Free Play. It was a true celebration of the importance of play and fun in early childhood!&nbsp;  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-3 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-8 is-layout-flex
