Toddler Connections Playgroups
Our seasoned teaching staff engages children through song, nature-based stories and activities, and free playβwhile families connect with the outdoors and one another.
Toddler Connections (TC) is a seasonal playgroup for children ages 15 months to 2.9 years, accompanied by a parent or other caregiver. Locations and session dates vary, see details below.
Benefits of Outdoor Playgroups
Designed by BOPN co-founder Sara Murray, Toddler Connections offers little learners a safe space to explore and engage with the environment.
Your child will benefit from regular socialization with a group of peers, in the comforting presence of their parent or caregiver. Grownups enjoy time spent with an experienced early childhood educator, who serves as a resource on preschool, parenting, and more!
Spring Enrollment opens February 15!
