10 week Session for children ages 3.5-12 years old

March 19th - May 7th + May 17th, 2025

Wednesdays 4:00pm-6:00pm + Saturday May 17th (4 hour closing sessions from 10:00am-2:00pm)

Our Outdoor Play Grief Support Group provide a space where children and parents can process feelings of loss and grief through play, where they are held in connection, and can move from aloneness to a sense of togetherness. It's a space where children can play and feel a sense of normalcy as a child in spite of the loss they are experiencing. 

* Please note the program operates in most weather and all seasons, although will be canceled for inclement weather. Please see our weather policy here.

About Playful Mindset

We work with children aged 0-12 years old, caregivers, and early childhood educators to utilize the power of play for support, learning, connection, healing and growth.

We imagine a world where all children play & thrive.

Land Acknowledgement

Playful Mindset is on the unceded, unsurrendered Territory of the Anishinaabe Algonquin Nation whose presence here reaches back to time immemorial. We recognize the Anishinaabe Algonquin Nation as the customary keepers and defenders of the Ottawa River Watershed and its tributaries. The land we play on is Indigenous land.
