## About

A Place(mat) at the Table is a Thanksgiving art day from the Lev & Learn Family Center for children ages 0 to 3 and their grown-ups, with siblings welcome. Families create unique placemats and decorations for their holiday table that inspire gratitude, and a laminator is on hand to preserve each placemat for Thanksgiving. All placemat materials are provided, so it is an easy, low-mess craft session for little ones.
