Play at the Park!

For a second summer, play with the Children's Museum at neighborhood parks across Providence! Stack and create with big blue Imagination Playground blocks, build three-dimensional structures from wooden dowels and fabric, blow bubbles with an array of wacky tools, and discover other open-ended fun with loose parts.

These activities build on the Museum’s efforts to support unstructured, child-directed play throughout the community and are part of our participation in Playful Providence – a citywide celebration of play commemorating Providence’s status as a Playful City for the second year, presented in collaboration with the Partnership for Providence Parks and the Providence Department of Parks and Recreation.
