Welcome to the Where The Children Play Learning Cooperative!
Thank you for visiting the Where The Children Play Learning Co-op! It has long been our goal to create a learning community that blends ages and interests with people from all walks of life. We are encouraged by curiosity, diversity, and cultivating a character that will give back to our communities and never tire of exploring and personal growth. In other words, we are all lifelong learners. As my Dad always says, “Every day is a school day!” May we never grow tired of learning and may we always have great friends to explore with!
Through strength in numbers, we hope to share each of our individual gifts with one another and our children as they learn. Whether it be through book clubs, knitting and quilting circles, learning new instruments, field trips, camping trips, earning our Wild Explorer badges, composing original prose, and who knows what else!
Nothing gives me more hope or inspires us more than when new friends join us for individual gatherings or dive in for long term explorations. We try to keep the majority of our get-togethers free and open to all. From time to time we will have drop off classes which require a small fee to cover the cost of childcare. In order to continue to provide a host space for our community along with as many opportunities as we can, a suggested donation free might be announced before an event. We truly believe that nothing should stand in the way of inclusion, every child learning and exploring, and no one will ever be turned away. If you are not comfortable donating please do not feel obligated to do so. If there is a costing course you are interested in being a part of and the fee is your obstacle, please reach out so that we can attempt to find a solution that includes your family.
Check back often and follow our Instagram account @wherethechildrenplay to see upcoming events and opportunities to explore with us.
We are only the sum of our parts. We love and need to have others share their passions, expertise, ideas with us. If you would like to lead a class please let us know! Collaboration is critical in creating a village for our children.

Fall 2020 CO-OP Information
to Covid and CO-OPs do not mix! Whew! What a year! This is not how we wanted to spend 2020 at all!
Thank you to everyone who has continued to support our dream and reach out.
At this time our Fall CO-OP group is full. Due to the uncertainty of just about everything, we are limiting group numbers and activities. We are keeping a watchful and thoughtful eye on current events, science, and our community’s desire to explore and grow.
Please check back here for updated outings, camps, and classes. We will add these as we feel safe and capable.
Follow our Instagram @wherethechildrenplay for the most up to date information. I will continue to share ideas, inspiration, and hopefully soon, opportunities for you to join us.
