Flexibility for parents, FUN for kids
Porter's Neck Play House is a drop in play center that cares for children 12 months and older on a drop in, no reservation required basis.
Some parents need a little help when running errands, some have regularly scheduled weekly commitments and others just need time to relax and re-energize to be the optimal parent. No matter what your part-time child-free needs are, we are here to help. We are not like any other drop in play centers. Instead we are quaint, family run, hands on and above all we always put children first, knowing that each child comes with his/her own individual needs.
State law requires a 10-1 adult to child ratio, but we try hard to stay below that. If you visit our facility you will feel at home in an instant and immediately realize that we are always catering to the children in our center. Their well being and growth are important and we take pride in the friendships that they foster here.
Daily schedules involve lots of free play as well as adult guided activities. There are many games and hands on exploration involved (ex: building volcanos, making home made snow, mixing our own paint colors, making play doh or a solar system or Mardi Gras masks). We love dancing, relay races, art, puzzles, story time and an occasional movie or educational show. No matter what time of day you stop in your child will have a great time! Promise.

It is a happy talent to know how to play.
