About the Presenter:
Bruce Templeton is an award-winning author of a number of books including The Man in the Red Suit, and In Search of St. Nicholas. Author proceeds from these books have gone to Rotary International’s Polio Plus Campaign. By accessing matching grants, sales of Mr. Templeton’s works have led to over 350,000 children receiving polio vaccinations.
Bruce has many accolades to his name: he is Canada’s only living member of the International Santa Claus Hall of Fame; he has been named a Knight of St. Nicholas; Red Cross Humanitarian of the Year, and has been inducted into the Order of Newfoundland and Labrador. He volunteers his time to numerous organizations including the St. John’s Rotary Club, Scouts Canada, The John Howard Society, and St. Andrew’s Church.
Kickstart your weekend by joining us at The Rooms! Spend Saturday mornings with your little ones in our charming Harbour View Room. It's a delightful opportunity for unguided playtime amidst a variety of toys and books tailored for toddlers aged 2 to 4.
There's no need to pre-register; simply pay your admission at The Rooms front desk and then drop in anytime between 10 am and noon and let the weekend festivities commence!
While the activities are designed for children aged 2 to 4, younger kids are more than welcome. Caregivers are required to accompany their children throughout the session. Our program room can accommodate up to 20 adults with their little ones, but if it's full, caregivers are encouraged to step back momentarily to allow space for others to join in the fun.
The Playdate is included in the cost of admission. Free for Rooms Members.
