Milwaukee With Kids is proud to partner with Little Sprouts Play Cafe to help spread the word about their offerings for families.
Happy Birthday, Little Sprouts!
Little Sprouts Play Cafe in Mequon is celebrating three years in the community on February 23rd, and they’ll be celebrating all week long with specials for their customers.
In addition to the discounted admissions, they’ll be offering food samples, giveaways, surprise bidets, and birthday treats.
What is a Play Cafe?
Little Sprouts has created a casual, bright, and friendly space that is perfect for a play date or to drop-in with your little one.
They have two locations, one in Mequon and one in Shorewood.
You can discover the play zones right along with your kids, keep an eye on them while you chat with a friend over Stone Creek coffee, or take advantage of the free Wi-Fi.
Ideal for kids ages 0-6, the thoughtful toys inside are meant to spark imaginative play.
Their play spaces are updated regularly, but you’re likely to find wooden play structures, a fanciful tipi, a group slide in Mequon, a pretend market in Shorewood, costumes, books, and more.
The cafes are open most days of the week from 9:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. Specific hours are listed on their website.
Dropping in to play is always welcome. However, reservations are encouraged for open play hours so that they can save room for you and maintain smaller capacities.
Outside of open play hours, they host a variety of sensory and play-based classes.
They also just announced the return of their unlimited Yearly Membership packages. Starting at $385, your family can visit both of their cafe locations as many times as you want throughout the year. With their memberships, you also get discounts on events, birthday parties, and more.
Birthday Parties
Little Sprout’s award-winning birthday parties have been recognized in The Shepherd Express, Winnie, and more.
For any party at their cafes, your group celebrates with a fully, private event. You can choose to bring your own food and decorations or let them supply it all.
Package options range from a mini Sprout Package to a big blowout, the Full Bloom Package. The new Brunch Package is even set up to provide the food and decor.
