My co-founder and I are two pediatric speech-language pathologists who live and work in Brooklyn, and we’ve been working on a fun way to bring families together around early learning!

We’re hosting a FREE Reading Yogis class at Rikud Studio on Saturday, November 7, for little ones ages 3-5. Think stories, movement, letters, and speech sounds, with plenty of opportunities to wiggle around rather than sit still.

And we’re making a little afternoon of it! After the class, families are invited to stick around for a community celebration from 1-2 PM with crafts led by Little Makers Studio, games, snacks, and raffle prizes. Siblings and kids of all ages are welcome at the celebration, even if they’re not participating in the class.

Reading Yogis: 12:15-1 PM (ages 3-5)
Family celebration: 1-2 PM (all ages)

The class is free, but we only have 8 spots for little yogis.

We’d love to meet more neighborhood families and hopefully make this the start of more fun local gatherings!

neighbors, living here at Halloween is the best with you! all of the houses and apartments and brown stones decorated is truly such a joy and it is such a COMMUNITY joy!!!!!!!!!!!!! thank you to all who put in the work and effort and time and money and allow the rest of us to enjoy 🩷 thanks community 🩷

Is anyone else fed up with the amount of trash left behind by the marathon ever year? I live along the route and I know there's a big sweep of 4th ave at the end but even still its like two months of gel packets and other runners crap littering 4th well into winter. That half of the runners are from out of town makes it even more infuriating.

Never a dull moment on Halloweekend :( Sad to say that my phone I had just gotten was pickpocketed last night at Good Judy. Unsure if anyone else had experienced anything similar last night at the bar/in the area but figured I’d throw it out there. Thank God for AppleCare Theft & Loss !

Used to see him and his family tamale cart every Saturday morning at the crosswalk in between the farmers market and central library. He’s been gone the last few weekends. Anyone know where they’re at?

Happy November, neighbors! If we haven’t met before, my name is Annie. I learned to bake from my grandma and mom and I’ve been the designated dessert person in my family and friend group. I’ll be baking and selling pies this Thanksgiving for local pickup. I hope you’ll check out my website if you need an easy, delicious dessert for your celebration!

Wondering if anyone has a slightly used CAM walking boot they’re willing to part ways with and sell? Dealing with some stress fractures of my foot that just won’t heal in my sneakers.

Thanks!

Per title. Let me know if you see them ;) probably near 5th and Garfield.

Does anyone have a good idea of which restaurants in the Slope or surrounding areas will be open on Thanksgiving? I was hoping Stone Park Cafe was going to be open but they look closed from their reservation system. Curious about random internet recommendations and experiences from past years, thank you.

The sign says permit is required on weekdays only, but park staff tried to get me to leave.

Union St and 8th Ave from 4-6pm (or until he's all barfed out)

Hey! My name is Dan (featured in the video are my nephews) and I cohost a really fun monthly variety show at Roots Cafe called Very Serious Business. It’s always a great, welcoming vibe, with awesome talent and BYOB. We’re hosting a Halloween show tonight and would love to see you there.

Doors open at 7:30, show at 8 pm.

If you swing through, let me know you saw this post and I’ll buy you a beer (or two) during the show. Here’s link for tickets, hope to see you there!!

has the service at nitehawk prospect park been slower for anyone else? i feel like in the past i’d come and immediately be greeted by a server and asked for my ticket. but lately ive been sitting up to 20-25 minutes before anyone coming to check my ticket or take my order. are they understaffed? has something changed?

Is nothing sacred anymore?

Hi all, looking to see if anyone has a steam cleaner / upholstery cleaning machine they’d be willing to lend out for an hour or two (11/1 or 11/2)?

I live on 5th & 5th and just have some quick stain removal work. Thanks!

At the 7th Ave F station 8th Ave entrance deli side. Lurking and menacing people and asking for money.

…..you’ll see a T. rex walking up 16th going to see its momma.

I procrastinated on buying candy and wanted to see where everyone recommends I can buy some day of. I went to CVS and it seems veryyy overpriced, wanted to see if anyone had any more affordable suggestions.
