Litania Holyk, Community Programmer said the grandparents used their handprint to create the letter o on the sign and the children made the letter v with their footprint. On the inside was a heart. “We have this program because we really wanted the grandparents to spend time with their grandchildren. Children get to take their love sign home so this activity will get them to look back and see their hand or feet when they were little,” Holyk said.

Tamara, who was with her grandson, Emerson said she loves this program because it gives her a good excuse to spend more time with her grandson. “I spend a lot of time with my grandson anyway, but this is something for memories because they always do fun activities at this program.”
