The Children's Room supports families with young children by providing a space to build an informal network of peers, access local resources, and visit a free, fun and safe place to socialize. Children, parents, grandparents and caregivers come to "the room" to play, meet people, share stories, familiarize themselves with a school setting, better understand childhood development, and get to know the Central Vermont community.

Free Playspace

Every day that Thatcher Brook Primary School is in session, The Children's Room is open for visitors ages 0-6 and their caregivers. Build community while exploring our toys, books, climbing structures, infant zone, crafts, instruments and more for FREE! 

Family Resources

The Children's Room works with Vermont organizations in support of young families and connects room users with resources available to them. Have a childcare issue? Need some food assistance or behavioral therapy? We can help make those connections!

Community Events

Throughout the year we host a variety events gears toward families with young children. From Big Toy Night and Dabble Days to Puppet Shows and the Barn Dance, we're sure to have something on the calendar your family will enjoy.
