Children rotate with their adult through five activity stations — motor skills, arts and crafts, cognitive skills (puzzles and problem solving), movement games for balance and gross-motor skills, and a sensory station designed to calm and regulate — and can stay for as long or as short a time as works for them. A caregiver must stay with the child throughout. The hour-long session is held in the Albert Einstein Classroom on a Thursday evening. Registration is required and opens November 10. ## Similar picks in Baltimore - [Sensory-Sensitive PAWS to Read — Finksburg Library](https://grassyknees.com/baltimore/activities/sensory-sensitive-paws-to-read-finksburg-library--listing-5c00d0386c682f0a4e5ea727) — Fridays 10:45–11:45 am: Nov 13, Dec 11, Jan 8 · Finksburg Branch, Carroll County Public Library · Ages 4+ · sensory-friendly · checked Oct 27.
