The Unknown Power of Toddler Playgroups

On a steamy summer afternoon fourteen years ago, an unusually large group of precocious toddlers came together for a play date.  It all seemed so sweet, summery, and strikingly simple.  Yet by the time the wooden train was derailed, the Cheerios were consumed and the moms had reached consensus on the next playgroup date, something extraordinary had occurred.  From that background of baby babble that permeated the playroom came a united decision:  these mini minds had made up their minds.  They were going to be beyond smashingly adorable.  They were also going to change their world for the better. Together.

Summer 2016. The journey has been a long and full of valuable work and play. The time has finally come.  The tots, now towering teens, will finally reunite – as the Jr. Leadership Medina County Class of 2017.

Or something like that.  Welcome to our world-changers!
