• An educational playgroup at Small Talk combines the best elements of a grown-up-and-me class and a traditional playgroup. The class features a blend of structured ‘teacher-student’ interactions and child-led activities. This approach introduces children to new material in a formal setting while allowing them to explore their own interests, make new friends, and simply enjoy being kids. It’s also a wonderful opportunity for parents to connect and socialize, fostering a sense of community that goes beyond the typical class structure.

  • Everyone should wear what makes them feel most comfortable. However, please consider that some activities might get messy or involve a lot of physical movement. Opt for comfortable clothing that you don't mind getting a bit dirty.

  • Absolutely! You have a couple of options: You can either purchase a drop-in class for a one-time visit or, if there are at least two weeks remaining in the session, you can join the playgroup at a prorated rate for the remainder of the session.

  • Small Talk is located at 96 Harlow Street in Bangor. Please note, due to new rules set forth by building management, the exterior doors are locked 24/7. To ensure smooth entry for our playgroups, kindly arrive no more than 5 minutes before the start of class, as you will need to be let into the building.
