ABOUT THIS EVENT

EVENT DESCRIPTION:

Happy Day Play Family Learning and Hoopla, a mental wellness app for parents and children, are teaming up to promote holistic family wellness and education during Mental Health Awareness Month.

The event, inspired by Hoopla's "Playful Panda's Breath of Joy" book, offers activities for both kids and parents, blending Hoopla's goal to calm and connect families with Happy Day Play's family learning mission.

Families can engage in a morning of interactive activities and themed stations catering to various interests and ages.

Simply download the app and show it to a Happy Day Play staff member at the door. App is available on IOS only. If you have another device, simply follow @hooplafun.app on social media alternatively.

Event is for families with children of all ages and will feature a live musical performance by local musician Emily McNally, wellness-inspired activity stations, open play set up for ages 0 to 5 years, parachute, bubbles, and more!
