*To help keep our littlest guests healthy, we do a quick temperature check for all babies and adults at arrival, and we’ll gladly offer a credit if anyone is feeling under the weather.* Join us for a Mini Baby Open Play session, with all the fun and exploration of open play in a shorter, half-hour format that’s just right for little ones. Come play your way in a calm, welcoming session created just for our youngest explorers and their caregivers. While Chelsea Forest Play is often shared with toddlers and preschoolers, this open play is reserved exclusively for pre-walkers. During this session, we swap out our older play materials for age-appropriate toys that support tummy time, early movement, and gentle sensory exploration, all without the hustle of bigger bodies or busier play. This is a place to stretch out on the floor, watch your baby observe and interact, and connect with other caregivers. Whether your baby is lying, rolling, sitting, or simply taking it all in, they are welcome exactly as they are. Is your little one confidently walking? Check out our regular Open Play sessions!
Kick off the weekend with story time and crafts at Green-Wood! Presented in partnership with Brooklyn Public Library, these sessions are led by Kidsmobile Librarian Michaela Donahue, who brings wonderful book selections perfect for young readers. At every program, the Library’s Bookmobile will be parked right outside the Green-House from 2–3pm. After you check out books, come inside for stories and crafts from 3–4pm! It’s a perfect way to discover new favorites, spark imagination, and enjoy quality time together. Don’t have a library card yet? Sign up and get one on the spot!
