A little late, but too special not to share! đ
Last month, we gathered at Frugal for our âIt Takes a Villageâ Play Date: a joyful day dedicated to literacy, community, and the incredible small businesses that help our thrive!
Families enjoyed hourly story times throughout the day, connected with local businesses founded and led by First Teacher families, and took home books, gifts, and plenty of smiles.
Weâre so grateful to everyone who joined us and to our partners at for helping create such a meaningful space for connection and celebration. It was a beautiful reminder that when we come together, our village grows stronger.
