Friday Kids Club: No Sew T-Shirt Monster In-Person

Have a difficult day at school, at practice, with family or friends? Did you know something as simple as hugging a plushie can bring unexpected comfort in these moments? But why does this soft, inanimate object seem to melt our stress away? The answer lies in the science of physical touch and the brain's chemical responses. Your brain releases oxytocin when you hug or hold a soft, comforting object like a plushie. Oxytocin is often called the "love hormone" or "cuddle chemical." In this Friday Club, we will be creating our own huggable monsters for those difficult days. Using a t-shirt, polyfill, and pellets, along with felt pieces and buttons, we will assemble and glue a no-sew t-shirt monster. Registration is required.
