The Peoria PlayHouse project is built on a solid partnership between the Junior League of Peoria, the Peoria Zoological Society and the Peoria Park Distrcit. As part of the larger plan to revitalize the campus at Glen Oak Park spurred by the expansion of the Peoria Zoo and Botanical Gardens, the Peoria Playhouse will be situated at the newly designed entrance to the zoo at the Glen Oak Pavilion.
Playgroups in Peoria, Tazewell, and Woodford counties are listed below. These groups provide positive social interaction for you and your little ones with other families. Determine the group that best fits your needs because each group is different. Some clubs have 15 members while others have over 120 members. Some club’s calendars have events every day of the week, while others meet twice a month. Figure out what best fits you and your kids, or join several clubs if you’re a social butterfly.
MOMS Club of Peoria
Libraries kick off their summer reading programs for kids ages 3 and up in June. It’s a great way to raise confident readers. Sign up at your local library, log in your weekly reading hours, and your child may receive a prize after the program is complete.
It’s been a long winter, so check out all the spring/summer activities the tri-county area offers.
