may to october
The Market Kids' TENT
Our kids' tent is set up every Saturday throughout the summer for you and your kids to take shelter from the sun and rain, play, rest, find information, or meet up with friends. We have colouring pages, books, toys, and a water table to help stay cool on hot days.
This is an unsupervised play area, so parents must stay with their kids.
~ SUMMER kids' EVENTS ~
We also offer children's activities throughout the summer. There’s always a sign at the kids' tent telling you where to go!
Examples of things we’ve done …
Peterborough Storytellers’ Story Hour
Kawartha Jr. Bee Keepers honey extraction demo
Waldorf-inspired Crafts with Rowan Tree Preschool
Building bird houses with Habitat for Humanity
Peterborough GreenUp Water Education & Play
November to ApriL
THE Winter Market KIds’ Zone!
Every Saturday our winter market kids’ zone is hopping with activity. We have loads of toys, games and activities for free play. We also offer weekly crafts facilitated by our super teams of kids’ zone volunteers.
In addition to toys and crafts, we offer special events and activities. So far we’ve hosted Razberry the Clown, who made animals balloons for all the kids. We’ve also hosted the Peterborough Storytellers who ran a wonderful story hour with Christmas carols, guitar and harp music.
