Kidsville Outdoors in the Park
April 2026
Kidsville celebrates the outdoors! Due to the temporary Parthenon closure, Kidsville's regular Saturday programs will get closer to nature by moving to Centennial Park's outdoor playground area.
Join us at the Centennial Park playground every Saturday in March for storytelling, arts & crafts, music and special guests. Registration is required.
Families with children ages 12 and under can register beginning at 10:30 AM, and children will immediately be able to participate in activity & craft stations.
Weekly storytelling or special guest programming will begin promptly at 11 AM.

April 4: Explore the outside delights of Centennial Park with Kidsville friends, Imagination Library for a playtime at the playground, book reading of Over in the Garden, and plant your own seeds to take home.
