Have a baby at home that you'd love to find some activities for? Are the big kids back in school and you find yourself searching for things to keep your toddlers and preschoolers busy! Here's our round up of all the local things to do with your kiddos that are under 5!

My Gym was born out of our passion to teach children in a fun, physically engaging environment. We delighted in seeing children's eyes light up for all those incredible milestones, from the tentative first steps to tumbling down soft mats. Sharing the parents’ excitement at their children’s accomplishments was the high point of our day.

We knew from the start that, through fun and captivating activities, we could accomplish great things. Our goal: To create an environment where children feel loved and supported so their self-esteem and confidence can flourish. Now, more than 35 years later, we’re proud to say that all children of all abilities can succeed and thrive at My Gym.

With 700+ locations worldwide, our dream of active, giggling children growing into happy and confident adults has been realized. We cherish every one of our members and are grateful to have each as part of our My Gym family.

 Looking for great classes, starting as young as 6mths- 8yrs old? Join My Gym Kingston today! Contact us at 781-582-2255 or by email Mygymkingston@gmail.com.







Off the Wall Kidz is a family owned and operated business built to create a fun, creative and diverse indoor play center for kids of all ages. We've incorporated every parent's top priorities; cleanliness, safety, affordability, and imaginative play for crawlers to pre-teens alike.

Our goal is to create a space that kids will want to visit time and time again. There are climbing structures, fast slides, trampolines, inflatable fun, pretend village, arcade games, interactive games you have to see to believe and surprises on each visit!

Parents are always FREE and encouraged to join in on the fun. When it's time for a break, sit back and relax and grab a bite from our kid and adult friendly food menu. Save your big celebrations for us and host your kids birthday party inside one of our private rooms and let your personal party planner take care of the details.

We hope you'll join us for play time anytime, and watch as your kids let that energy out and fun IN!






If you have a baby, toddler, or preschooler at home, you need to check out the Plymouth Family Network. The PFN is a free resource to support families with young children and expectant parents living in the town of Plymouth. They provide referral services, help finding a preschool/childcare, early screenings and free playgroups and parent enrichment opportunities. They also are the great organization behind the Story Walks at Forges Field. Be sure to subscribe to their newsletter and check out their calendar so you never miss a thing! 




Our library does an amazing job of offering programming for all ages, including babies, toddlers, and preschoolers. From storytimes to arts and crafts hours, there are so many great programs to check out. Take a peek at the September calendar below and pencil in some time for literacy with your little one! 





The Plymouth YMCA has some great programs. If you are already a Plymouth YMCA member, keep an eye out for new programs being added. If you aren't a member, what are you waiting for!? Keep your child busy while you work out, do some yoga, or just take an uninterrupted shower!
