Early Years Play Dates
This weekly, drop-in program encourages early years children (age 0-5) and their caregivers to spend quality time learning and playing together. Thoughtfully designed with your child’s development in mind, each Early Year’s Play Date helps children explore their senses, their environment, and relationships with those around them. Look out for weekly themes!
All programs are included in general admission. Admission can be purchased in advance online or by walk-in at our front desk!
