What should adults do at The Yard?
You don't need to entertain them.
Follow their lead. Get involved when invited. Help when needed. Or simply watch their ideas unfold.
There is no expectation that your child completes every activity or leaves with a finished product.
We ask that you follow safety advice from Yard staff and step in if your child is being unsafe towards themselves, others or the materials/tools.
