Hello again.
We reached out for your help to make Kids Square’s 7th birthday and re-opening extra special. With the recent water damage, we’re excited to celebrate with new and fresh things for the kids to explore!
A huge thank you to everyone who has already stepped up and supported us. Your generosity is making a big difference as we work to create a fantastic place for families to explore, play and learn together.
Let’s keep the momentum going and make this birthday and re-opening one to remember! A droplet of water with the name of the company or person you want to honor or recognize, will be added to the “Flood of Kindness” poster when we reopen.
You can order from our Amazon wish list or by making a cash donation. Both links are provided below.
We also want to hear your amazing stories about what Kids Square means to you and your family! Whether it’s a heartwarming memory or a simple moment of joy, we want to hear and share it with everyone we can. Be sure to share a photo in the comments.
Here are a few stories that have touched our hearts (a few among hundreds):
1. A mom brought her child into the hospital exhibit to show him the incubator. The playful environment at Kids Square helped ease his fear before visiting his sister at the real hospital near by.
2. A child on the autism spectrum found a quiet corner in our sensory area to calm themselves before returning to play, thanks to our supportive environment.
3. Kids who have been with us since day one (2017) are now heading into 2nd grade, having grown up with Kids Square as a cherished part of their lives.
We know you have your own special moments too. It could be as simple as a favorite spot where you watch your child dive into imaginative play. Share your story on social media, and we’ll add you to our plan. Your stories, big or small, mean the world to us.
Let’s fill our wall with the love and support of our wonderful community!

What our visitors have to say!
Incredible place to take kids for fun, interactive entertainment! This was one of my favorite places we have found on our travels. So many educational areas that just let kids explore. My daughter had a blast. They also sell some affordable costumes and toys which made it a little easier to leave.

This is a great place for a group of kids to go together, role play as if they were in the workforce.
It’s quite neat!
Rock climbing walls, rubber sand pits & large Lego blocks were the biggest hit for my 2 kids.
They hated to leave, but we will be back soon!
-Anthony F.
We love Kids Square! Such a great place to take the kids. Each area promotes learning through play as well as a climbing area that is perfect for my little ones. My daughter’s love the stage where they can dress up and pretend to put on shows.
