Playgroups in Traverse City

Playgroups in Traverse City are how most local moms meet their people. Help Me Grow Up North runs weekly playgroups at Lake Ann UMC, Interlochen Library, Keswick UMC, NMCAA in Honor, the Mancelona Library, Cognition in Beulah, and several other spots across the region — most are free, drop-in, and welcome ages 0–5 with caregivers.

If you're a new TC mom (especially one without family nearby), one playgroup a week becomes your sanity-saver and your slowly-building friend group.

Browse this week's playgroups below. For library-based options, see storytime; for indoor energy-burners, see indoor play; and to connect with other playgroup moms between sessions, join The Exchange — our private community for verified TC moms.
