Lakeshore Learning has free in-store events for kids ages 3+ every month!

Have you been to Lakeshore Learning? It’s a store geared toward teachers and schools, filled with toys, books, supplies for any classroom. As a stay-at-home mom, I’ve been obsessed with their toys since my son was born! They make amazing open-ended play toys and their stuff really holds up kid after kid.

But I’m not here to talk about their toys– did you know they have free in store events a couple times a month? Events change monthly, but right now during March they are focusing on sensory experiences!

Coming up on Saturday, March 7th, you can stop by for their free event: Wacky Mixes and Color Science Demo. At this event, kids create custom concoctions and learn how color, light and sparkle interact. Swing by our Play & Discover area to get hands-on with featured products.

Check in when you arrive for a chance to win a $100 Lakeshore E-Gift Card. No reservations are needed, you can drop by anytime from 11am- 3pm, but parents are required to stay with their children at the event.
