Open Play at The Wonder Room
Reserve Your Spot to Play
Open Play by Reservation Only is a chance for you and your children to plan a visit and use the toys and craft supplies available on the day of your visit. Our space and programs are best suited for children 2 - 7 years old. Younger children are welcome, but we do have small objects out in our centers, so close supervision is necessary at all times. Older children are welcome as well. Reservations are limited in one time slot. This will allow for ample space inside and outside. Each time slot is 2 hours. Days and times will vary. Please check availability.
VISITORS ARE REQUIRED TO FOLLOW ALL HEALTH AND SAFETY POLICIES IN PLACE AT THE TIME OF YOUR VISIT.
If for any reason we need to cancel your session, you will be contacted by email.

What to Expect
When you arrive, you will be welcomed into our space and checked in by confirming your reservation. We will ask if anyone in your group is experiencing any symptoms that indicate that they are sick. Mask wearing is optional, we ask the guests be kind and respectful of each other’s decisions.
Please limit your belongings inside the building:
Snacks and drinks may be enjoyed on the front bench or outside only
No strollers inside
No additional items from your vehicle
Hooks are available for belongings (Jackets, Hats, Purse/Bag)
You will be asked to wash or sanitize your hands, and then you will be ready to PLAY!
Supervising adults must stay in close proximity to their children. This will allow for ample space for all visitors to socially distance appropriately. You will notice that the space has been organized into stations or centers, and play items and craft materials have been organized in bins or spaces. You can use the items at a station of your choice. Once you are done with the play items, please clean it up and place it in a designated area for sanitizing and reorganizing.
Contact information will be used from the registration process with required answers to COVID-screening/ illness questions. This information will be made available to the Health Department for contact tracing if necessary.
We have made several changes, but our mission remains the same: To nurture the wonder in young children through creative art and play.
