Rest, then play.
We know you love coming in to play—and we love having you here! To help keep our shared play space healthy, please stay home if you or your child are coughing, have a fever, or are feeling sick.
Take time to rest. We’ll be here for more adventures when you’re feeling better. Thank you for helping us care for our Grove community!

Three small ways to make the day gentler.
Parenting asks a lot of you. You don’t need a perfect routine—sometimes one small change is a good place to start.
Give a little heads-up.
Transitions can feel big. Before leaving play or starting the next activity, try a short reminder: “Two more turns, then we’ll put our shoes on.” Keep the next step simple and predictable.
Offer two doable choices.
Let your child have a say within a clear limit. “Would you like the blue cup or the green cup?” Small choices can make everyday moments feel more manageable.
Make space to reconnect.
Try a few phone-free minutes following your child’s lead. Build, draw, read, or simply sit together. There’s no activity to finish—just a little time to enjoy each other.

Big birthday joy.
Grove-sized fun.
