## About

A drop-in morning of field play for preschoolers and their parent or caregiver on the sports field area of the Wheaton Sports Pavilion. Self-guided activity stations are spread around with equipment for different field sports and games, and families move between them at their own pace while children practise running, jumping and throwing. It is a low-pressure way for 3- to 5-year-olds to burn energy and build coordination and confidence alongside other kids.
