Lots of open space on-site with trails, a large park + an underpass to the lake. Bring whatever your family needs to be comfortable playing inside and out.

M – February 17: Johnson Habitat Park

Because today’s a holiday, the libraries are all closed. We’ll be meeting at Johnson Habitat Park for a few hours to play together. Let’s aim at 11am, so it’s going to be as warm as it gets. This park is along the South Platte River + has cool playground equipment, picnic areas + porta-potties.

January 23 @ 10a – Trial Day for Tween/Teen Program

Thursdays from 10a-4p – We’re looking for Tweens/Teens aged 10+ to flesh out our current crew! Because this age group tends to be slow to warm, we’re going to run a free trial day. Sign up here to be included in our Spring Semester launch!

M – December 16: Feliz Navidad

It’s our last week with a kitchen space for awhile, so let’s make the most of it! We’re doing group tacos as part of la fiesta de navidad.

M – December 9: Engineering + Lego

It’s LEGO day! We’re going to set up a few, timed challenges – tallest tower, sturdiest bridge, longest build, etc – and get started working with bricks that way. From there, we can add a more specific challenge, if people are interested, or else it devolves into a building free for all. Let’s see whether we can’t build a whole town over the course of the day.

M – December 2: Cookies + an Obstacle Course

Let’s start the day by setting up an obstacle course. We’ll clear a wide area for physical play + let the kids put this together. If you have any soft, gymnastic-style materials that we can use for this, please bring them. We’re especially looking for pads, floor beams, things to jump over or go around, etc.
