Imagine your daughter starting her day at APTB, wandering through a lush garden, her eyes filled with excitement as she takes in the many magical spaces waiting to be explored. She pauses at the outdoor theatre stage, then peeks into the chicken coop before making her way to the woodworking shed. On the path, she spots a cat and stops to play. Another child joins her, and soon, they’re giggling as they watch the silly cat pounce at falling leaves. They introduce themselves and, without hesitation, set off together—chasing, hiding, and laughing. Before long, three more children join in, rolling on the grass, shrieking with joy, their different languages no barrier to their shared adventure.

As they pass the theatre, someone leaps onto the stage, pretending to be in a dramatic scene. The others follow, playing along. One boy, clutching his favorite book, excitedly suggests they act out the story. Everyone loves the idea. He begins narrating while the others eagerly pick their roles. What starts as a playful moment turns into a full-blown performance—improvised costumes, grand gestures, deep belly laughs. They are completely immersed until their rumbling stomachs remind them it’s time to eat.

Your daughter and her new friend rush off to find you in the coworking space, where you’ve been working all morning. She throws her arms around you in a warm hug, introduces her friend, and declares, “We’re hungry!” You smile, close your laptop, and walk home together. The girls crack eggs for a scramble while you fry something on the stove, the aroma filling the air. You decide to eat outside, settling in the garden, surrounded by breathtaking nature. As you share a meal, they excitedly recount their morning, pausing to giggle at the funniest moments.

After lunch, the girls wander into the library, drawn to the puzzles, books, and games. Lost in deep concentration, they barely notice when a Partner walks by, announcing an upcoming science experiment. Their eyes light up—they have to join! Inside the science room, they meet six other curious minds, all eager to explore and learn. With laughter and focus, they dive into hands-on discovery, their enthusiasm contagious.

Later, as you glance out from the coworking space, you catch a glimpse of your daughter running barefoot across the grass, waving at you through the window. Your heart swells. She’s beaming, full of life, skipping toward A Place To Be Creative, where she’ll spend the afternoon measuring, cutting, and sewing, bringing her ideas to life.

When your workday ends, you find her still busy at her station, surrounded by fabric scraps and colorful threads. She looks up with bright eyes and proudly holds up her creation. “This one’s for you, Mommy!” she says, placing it in your hands with a smile.
