(For up to 2.5 hours per day, 7 days per week!)
Activities for all ages:
Children 3 months – 12 months will have two hours of fun in our Infant/Toddler Room. The room is full equipped with all the comforts of home such as swings, bouncers, and bouncy seats. Please note that reservations are required for this age group. Parents may reserve space up to 48 hours in advance. Once your toddler is over 12 months or able to walk on their own, reservations will no longer be necessary.
Toddlers between 12 months and 23 months and walking will receive the same amount of care as the older children (2.5 hours) but remain in the toddler room where we have lots of age appropriate toys and development play.
For the younger children (2-5 years) our main area is equipped with a TV accompanied by an extensive G-rated movie library. They can also enjoy playing video games on our Game Cube systems. For active kids, we have a two-story play castle with tunnels and slide.
For the really big kids (ages 6-11) we have a room just for them! Their hangout from the younger kids includes a Game Cube, 2 Play Station video game consoles as well as bubble hockey and foosball. Or just a quarter area to read a book. Children are allowed to bring their handheld gaming systems. However, we do not allow phones, iPods, iPhones, iPads, cameras, portable computers, or personal DVD players due to content control.
