About the PLAY Network.

Welcome to the PLAY Network

We are Missoula’s best source for finding playdates and fun activities for children and their caregivers. Our goal is to connect families. If you are looking to connect with other parents, find other kids for your little one to play with, or just want to find some fun, kid-friendly activities? It is ALL here at PLAY Network of Missoula!!!

For only $35 per year, we offer weekly playdates, plan activities and events, a monthly “mom’s night out”/Parent night out and more!! Scholarships are available and we are open to all family structures. Read below to find out more!!

  • PLAYdate – Neighborhood playgroups meet weekly and typically happen at a person’s home or at local parks. During the winter, we like to switch it up with some indoor spaces as well. These are great ways for children to play/socialize together and for parents to get to know one another. Additionally, there are monthly all-member playdates once per month.
  • Kid Friendly Activities – Network-wide events approximately two times per month include social get-togethers, arts & crafts, holiday parties, field trips, and local business tours for entertainment and learning.
  • Parents’ Night Out – We coordinate a monthly “parent night out” for get togethers just for the adult members of the group!  One of our favorite PNO is our SWAP, sponsored by Big Sky Box, where we share gently used kids and maternity items.
  • Special Activity Discounts – Occasionally we are able to negotiate a discounted group discount for activities like music or gymnastics classes.
  • Monthly Newsletter – A run down of upcoming Network & “around town” events, and other Network News.

Our organization is run by a volunteer group of parents – for parents. We are always excited to welcome new members with new energy and ideas into the PLAY Network.
