There are six playgroups in Bennington County. Playgroup gives
your child a chance to be with other children. It's a chance for
your child to use toys and materials that are age-appropriate.
Playgroups offer developmental activities and play materials that
encourage children to explore, experiment and create. Please come
join us at playgroup! Below is the Success by Six fall playgroup
schedule. Pre-registration not required. Guidance from a professional
facilitator, open play, project time and snacks planned each week.
