Martensville-Warman Early Years Family Resource Centre Offers Full Lineup of March Programming

Families in Martensville and Warman can look forward to a month filled with learning, connection, and hands-on experiences as the Martensville-Warman Early Years Family Resource Centre (EYFRC) rolls out its March programming calendar.
Designed for children from newborn to five years old and their caregivers, the Centre’s programs focus on early childhood development, family bonding, and building strong foundations for lifelong learning.
Throughout the month, Practical Life Skills (March 3 and 19) will help children aged three to five build essential everyday abilities. From kitchen skills and gross motor development to self-care and environmental awareness, the program encourages independence while making learning fun and engaging.
For the littlest learners, Tummy Explorers (March 3, 10, 17 and 24) supports newborns to 18 months through activities that promote developmental milestones such as rolling, crawling, and reaching. March sessions will feature visiting professionals including a nutritionist, Sask Kids Physio, and Myranda Reimer Physiotherapy, offering parents valuable insight into their child’s development.
Children aged three to five and their caregivers can take part in Foundations Learning: Learn & Soar (March 4, 11, 18 and 25), a registered literacy-focused program that incorporates rhymes, storytelling, and hands-on activities. Families receive take-home books, and parent sessions are offered following activities with childminding provided.
A creative collaboration is also on the schedule with Family Art Piece (0–5) on March 5. In partnership with the Warman Arts Centre, families will work together to create a collaborative art piece that will be displayed at the Centre. The first session takes place at the Warman Arts Centre studio, with a follow-up session planned for April at the EYFRC.
The popular Sip & Chat (0–5) series (March 6, 13, 20 and 27) continues to provide a welcoming space for moms and caregivers to connect while childminding is available. Each session features guest professionals who offer support and discussion around mental health, physical wellness, and parenting strategies. March guests include a naturopathic doctor, Myranda Reimer Physiotherapy, Calm After the Stork, and CMHA.
Developmental screening and support remain a priority at the Centre. During Bonding Thru Play & ASQ Screen on March 9, staff will provide Ages & Stages Questionnaire information and screenings for families interested in tracking developmental milestones. Bonding Thru Play sessions continue regularly throughout the month, offering open play and opportunities to connect with other families.
Language development is supported through Lil Communicators (18–36 months) on March 9 and 23. This registered program uses stories, songs, and conversation to build toddler language skills, with take-home kits provided to participating families.
STEM learning comes to life during Lil Scientists (3–5) on March 11 and 24, where parents and children explore science experiments together, fostering curiosity and early learning in an interactive environment.
Families can also attend the Immunization Clinic on March 12 for children aged 0–5. Parents are reminded to bring their child’s health card.
Special guests will join several Bonding Thru Play sessions, including ECIP on March 16, Nicole Denbow from Gabriel Dumont Institute on March 26 to share Métis culture and artifacts, and a Saskatchewan Health Authority Speech-Language Pathologist on March 30 to answer questions about children’s language development.
The month wraps up with Lil Tastebuds (2–5) on March 31, a registered, facilitator-led cooking program where families prepare simple, healthy recipes together. With limited spots available, families are encouraged to join the waitlist for future sessions if the program fills quickly.
The Centre will be closed March 2 for Centre Change, March 5 for Pre-K Family Engagement Day, and March 6 for Staff Professional Development.
