Cooperative play.

Want to help socialize your toddler before they go to daycare, preschool or kindergarten?
Need a way to burn off their energy during the cold winter months when the playgrounds are covered in ice?
Looking to make connections with other families in the community?
Craving a little time to chat with other adults over coffee while your kiddo plays with other neighborhood children?

Our co-operative playgroup meets 2 mornings a week for preschool-style activities: Every day the children enjoy free play in a large open space, eat snack with their new friends and enjoy circle time with songs and stories, all with their trusted caregiver nearby!

BFP offers:

A very large indoor space with ride-on toys (tricycles, cars, etc) for Gross Motor Play on even the coldest days!

A variety of Toys for different ages, so you don't have to fill your house with them!
Periodic Crafts, so they can explore their creative side without making a mess at home!
Monthly themed Parties with decorations, crafts and other fun activities.
Tables, chairs and high chairs to enjoy your nut/sesame-free Snack you brought from home as well as complimentary Coffee, Tea for the adults!
A warm place to gather and enjoy Community and Playmates all year long!
