  • If you  are 10 minutes late or more to a program, we reserve the right to give your seat away to another person.
  • Please adhere to program age ranges unless otherwise specified. Please reach out to Kidspace if you would like to request an accommodation. Some programmers and performers are more lenient than others and we always encourage you to ask.
  • We ask that parents/guardians engage in the activities with their kiddos. Please don't have side conversations during presentations. Let's all learn and explore together!
