Engage your children’s creativity and compassion by creating Valentine’s Day cards for grandfriends where Kids Impact Community host intergenerational play groups.
Activities
Kids Impact Community is partnering with Park Pals for an indoor Winter Series play session!
During this event, children will have the opportunity to create Valentine’s Day cards for our grandfriends before joining a 30-minute program of music, movement, and simple activities. After the guided session, kids can enjoy plenty of space for running, jumping, and imaginative play, while caregivers connect with new families and strengthen community ties. We hope you’ll join us for a warm and joyful winter gathering!
Impact
Your kids will have the chance to create meaningful human connections, help fight loneliness, and build a stronger community by brightening the lives of older adults who could really use a little extra love. It’s an opportunity for them to make a difference while having fun!

Our Partner
Park Pals is a free social group designed for toddlers and their parents or caregivers. Founded by two former teachers turned stay-at-home moms, the group is all about creating opportunities for families to play, learn, and connect while supporting kids’ development in a relaxed, welcoming space. It’s an easy-going group where you can come and go as you please, and feel free to follow your toddler’s lead. They know how important it is to get out and meet others while supporting your little one’s growth. Visit their website here.
