    Like lessons, or things for mom/child (or dad/child)?

    My 3 year old loves kindermusic at Neighborhood acadamy of music, he likes ice skating lessons (mice on ice) at garner Ice house... he likes story time at the library. We prefer Angier library. It is a drive but worth it. Ummm, we check out toys from the Johnston County partnership for children, we do open gym on Fridays at Morgans gym...

    For one hour you can pay $5 and watch your children as they play. So no staff, just moms/dads. But they can play on almost anything. We have fun!!

    It is 11-12, and 1-2 I think....I always get the times wrong, so call to confirm!!

    It is the Partnership for children of Johnston county.

    If you open the above link, you can search through to see what kits they have. It is a little hard to understand until you have seen the kits. Click on a kit and read the notes and it tells you what is in each kit. Some are huge, like almost too heavy for me to carry. (some are smaller totes)

    We just got a parachute, bristle blocks, an art appreciation kit and a box of musical instruments. We have really enjoyed them!

    If you want to head over to Cary, try ....

    They have a 10 visit Mon.-Thus. pass that works out to be $5 or $6 per child per visit (I forget the exact details). If you've been to Jumpin Beans, Monkey Joes offers much more for the children to do.

    ljk, we did the open gym today. My 4 yr. old loved it. We'll definitely be back.

    When I was there, there was someone looking at an art kit. I thought it would have been cool if it was someone from here :)
