🌱 Growing With Our Community

Thanks to our exciting move to Austin Lakes Common and recent grant funding, we’re continuing to expand our collection of quality toys, learning resources and outdoor equipment. New experiences are being added throughout the year, giving families something new to discover each term.

🧸 Our Toys & Resources

We love involving our community and encourage families to suggest toy or resource purchases that they believe would add value to the playgroup.

While our toys are thoroughly enjoyed during playgroup sessions, please note that toys cannot be borrowed or taken home. For this reason, we also kindly ask families not to bring toys from home, as they may be forgotten, misplaced, or accidentally go home with another child.
