Mission Statement
The mission of JJ’s Playhouse is to positively stimulate a child's mind, body, and spirit through interactive learning exhibits and educational programs that are fun, healthy, safe, and inspirational.
Description
JJ's Playhouse was created out of a passion for the health, well-being, growth and development of children. Concerned about the quality and availability of opportunities for children near their home, the founders conceived JJ's Playhouse in 2005 with two goals in mind - to provide a engaging learning and exploration facility for children and to tackle the growing issue of childhood obesity. What started as an idea grew into crafting JJ's Playhouse as both a children's museum and gym.
Until a permanent facility is funded and built, JJ’s Playhouse reaches children through school and community programs that apply our hands-on, exploratory approach to engage children in learning experiences that are full of fun and discovery. Our traveling exhibits and programs are currently presented at a variety of sites where children and families gather to develop creativity, confidence, and compassion.
