Curiosity Corners | Grant County CPC

What is a Curiosity Corner?

Curiosity Corners are welcoming play spaces for young children, located inside local businesses and community spaces. They invite children ages 0–5 to explore, create, and learn through hands-on play while families go about their day.

These corners are free, open to the public during business hours, and designed to support early learning in a simple, engaging way.

Each Curiosity Corner is filled with:

Open-ended toys and activities
Simple prompts that spark imagination
Materials made for little hands
Space for kids to explore at their own pace

There’s no right way to play — following curiosity is the goal.
