BRINGING BACK PLAY TO EVERY CHILD'S LIFE

Build & Play is Sunflower Creative Arts' Community Outreach Program that provides child-directed, STEAM based play sessions to the communities of South Florida. B&P sessions create an environment where children can follow their intrinsic motivation to explore, build, create & LEARN.

Exciting news!!!

Sunflower’s Build & Play Program receives a summer grant from Community Foundation for Palm Beach and Martin Counties. 

Where Play Heals and Learning Grows: Build & Play at Village Academy

Through this program, we’re responding to the growing play-deficit crisis by bringing high-quality, STEAM-based learning directly to Head Start at Village Academy. In weekly, facilitated Build & Play sessions, children engage with open-ended materials that spark creativity, support emotional regulation, and build essential life skills.


This partnership not only supports teachers, but ensures that children who need it most have the time, space, and freedom to play, explore, heal, and truly grow.
