Buzzword to Explore ENTERTAINMENT at Family-Friendly Event in September

As part of Buzzword’s programming, we distribute our signature “BUZZ Boxes” to local families to help excite children from birth to age five as well as their caregivers about new words that are all around them. These family engagement kits come complete with a high-quality children’s book and enriching activities that support early literacy skills and development.

This month’s Buzzword is ENTERTAINMENT, which means being provided with amusement or enjoyment. Our ENTERTAINMENT Activity Book will give children – ages birth to five – and their caregivers the opportunity to connect through science, art, music, and early literacy skills.

Buzzword will explore its latest buzzword during a celebratory, music-focused, and family-friendly event on Wednesday, Sept. 4. The event will run from 5:30 p.m. to 7 p.m. at the Clairton Family Center, located at 734 Miller Ave. in Clairton.

During the event, children and their caregivers will engage with each other to create meaningful moments through interactive activities provided by the Pittsburgh Festival Opera. Each family will take a BUZZ Box home with them and dinner will be provided.

Registration is required to attend.

Be sure to check back soon for more information on the ENTERTAINMENT Activity Book and other Buzzword materials for September.
