We're excited to build this group with parents, guardians, child care providers, babysitters, grandparents, family members, friends, and their little ones!
No charge to attend; visitors are welcome! This playgroup is hosted by the Oak Arbor Church & Montessori School, and is intended for anyone in our local community who would like to attend, as well as Oak Arbor Church members.
In nice weather, we will be outside at the playground. In colder/rainy weather, we will be inside the spacious social hall. Bathroom facilities and a changing table are available.
All adults visiting the building, please enter through the main school doors, and sign in and out at the front office.
This group is designed primarily for infants & toddlers up to 4 years. Siblings are welcome to attend — we ask that older children join in with care and help maintain a toddler-friendly environment.
Join us on Thursdays!
If you have ideas, feedback, or questions, please reach out anytime: Gleice Jones or Denielle Schnarr
• Open-ended, age-appropriate play
• Social interaction and learning through play
• Opportunities for caregiver connection
• Indoor and outdoor time (weather permitting)
To help keep everyone safe and happy, we ask that all families follow these shared expectations:
Supervision
• Children must be actively supervised by their caregiver at all times.
• Please stay within close proximity to your child(ren), especially during active or outdoor play.
Older Siblings
• Siblings are welcome, although the group’s focus is on toddlers.
• We ask older children to play gently and inclusively, and avoid activities that may overwhelm younger kids.
• If bringing older children regularly, feel free to bring quiet activities to help them stay engaged.
Health & Cleanliness
• Please stay home if your child is ill (fever, vomiting, contagious symptoms).
• Help us keep the space clean: clean up after your child and use the provided wipes/paper towels if needed.
Snacks & Allergies
• Bring a snack and water for you and your child.
• Please check with other adults before sharing food to prevent allergy risks.
• Let the group know if your child has any food allergies or sensitivities.
Space Respect
• We share this space and all materials with the School and Church — please treat them with care.
• Encourage children to take turns, use kind hands, and respect others’ space.
