The Iowa City Parks and Recreation Playgrounds Drop-in Program provides games, arts and crafts, nature activities and special events for children completing grades K-6. The program runs Monday - Friday, June 6- July 29 at Highland, North Market Square, Wetherby and Willow Creek Parks in Iowa City. Programs will not meet on July 4. Younger children may attend with a participating adult 18 years of age and older. 

This is a no fee, drop in program, and children are welcome to come and go as they please, so parents should use discretion when sending children without a caregiver. Registration is on-site the first day of attendance. Playgrounds will not open if it is raining, and will close if rain begins after opening.
