While older brothers and sisters are in school, bring your preschoolers to Deep River County Park for a program designed just for them. Children may hear stories, learn finger plays, sing songs, play games, and just have fun with others their age. Make lasting memories by having fun alongside your preschooler. Programs are held rain or shine. You may want to bring a brown bag picnic lunch to enjoy in the Park after the program. Picnic tables and hiking trails are nearby. Also bring bottled water and insect repellent if needed.
