✨ On the September 9th members-only night, we’ll have complimentary snacks and juice boxes to enjoy.
🎨 On the September 23rd members-only night, kids can join us for a fun painting with apples craft.
Limited memberships are still available!

🍓 Fruit Pizza Playdate – $15 per child / $12 members
Join us for a sweet twist on playtime! Kids will build their own fruit pizzas using cookie “shells” from Art’s Bakery, with a variety of spreads and toppings to try. Special guest Leah Haas, MS, CCC-SLP (feeding & picky eating specialist) will be on hand to share simple tips for exploring new foods in a fun, no-pressure way.
Families who prefer can take their child’s creations home to enjoy later — perfect for continuing the food fun at your own pace. Open play included!
Join us for a special afternoon of Music for Munchkins! From 12–3pm, local musicians will be filling the air with live, kid-friendly tunes—perfect for tiny dancers, toe-tappers, and music-loving munchkins of all kinds.
This event takes place during our regular Open Play session, but we’re bringing back a fun local tradition with presale tickets!
Presale Pricing:
$8/child when purchased in advance through our online store.
(Regular pricing applies day-of if space allows.)
Your presale ticket secures your spot and helps us plan for volume—but it's not required.
Come play, dance, and make some joyful noise with us!

Miss Kathie
As a mother to five boys, and a former foster parent, who was raised by a social worker, Cassy recognizes the importance of play and community for children and their parents. Her goal is to create a space where children can exercise their endless energy and imagination. When she isn't working to make That Play Place somewhere she'd want to take her kids, you can find her running Wilder Party supplies, volunteering her time to her community, or trying to get through her TBR list.

Miss Kathie has worked in child development for over 30 years, and more importantly, raised four amazing children and supports them as they raise her 13 grandbabies. This woman has seen it all, and maintains there is no one way to raise a child. When she isn't working at That Play Place, you can find her helping families at Iroquois School District, with her grandbabies, or at a concert.
