Welcome to Shinyhill

Our mission is simple: to make free and unstructured play a central element in the lives of all children, regardless of family income.  Playing is for pleasure; for fun.  It's for laughs.  It's even for blowing off steam.  But it's also so much more than that.  Play is a child's natural way of learning about the world around her.  Exploration, discovery, hands-on creation, all allow a child to learn new information firsthand.  Furthermore, when this type of learning is paired with adult facilitation, developmental benefits abound in many areas including social, physical, emotional and cognitive development.  Therefore our mission objectives are threefold:
  • To promote and encourage free, unstructured play involving low-to no-cost activities
  • To promote and encourage positive parent-child or guardian-child interaction
  • To provide information on child safety, nutrition and health information

To learn more about how we strive to achieve these goals, please come on in and play!
