“What you are doing is world building. You are co-creating the future through this person, or these people, that you are holding space for… their becoming.”

What We Do

Eastside Kids connects parents and caregivers of young children to their communities by highlighting fun, interesting, family-friendly activities up and down I-94, from Detroit up to Mount Clemens. Currently, the activities we highlight are aimed at littles from birth to four years old, but if you’ve got older ones, keep an eye on us, as we might increase our scope in the future! We also hope to host an event or two of our own like meet ups, playdates, and parent support groups if there’s enough interest. If you’d like to see something specific, please let us know!

How We Do It

We highlight fun activities through our big ‘ole calendar that you can find on this website, here. We also provide more bite-sized content (e.g. what’s happening this week/weekend/month) on our Instagram. If you’re on Facebook and you want to post about your event, post a question to other Eastside parents and caregivers, or check out what other businesses or parents have posted, join us over there. You can also look forward to posts on this website that round up awesome Eastside playgrounds, family-friendly restaurants where your kids eat for free, local rec and community centers where you can sign your little up for activities like swim lessons, ballet, soccer, etc., and more. Join our newsletter to get all of this in your inbox!
