Toddler Snack-tivity Series
Families with toddlers are invited to come enjoy a morning of fun snacks and activities! On the second Wednesday of each month (during the school year), parents or guardians can bring their toddlers (ages 5 and under) to enjoy a themed activity and snack from 10:00a.m. to 11:00a.m. in Central Park. Pre-registration is required and there is a fee of $5 per resident child and $6 per non-resident child. For the most part, experiences are self-guided, so we do ask that parents and guardians participate along with their children.
