Jewish Community Center Open Play, Chesterfield



Location:16801 Baxter Rd, Chesterfield, MO 63005

Website: https://www.jccstl.com/

They also have a Maryland Heights location that I reviewed here. This location has more to offer in my opinion. It's FREE for anyone with kids aged 5 and under regardless of where you live or if you're a member. They have a ton of toys to play with plus free snack and free craft! What more could you want!

This free open play changes every semester so check their website for current dates and times. All you do is sign in with the front desk and then play! The restrooms are right across the hall which is super convenient also.




BBQ pit and several kitchens.




Blue merry go round, orange slide, tunnel, and climber. 


Free craft of the day was a foam activity chart. You could make the steps out of a clothespin and then move them to the done side when they are finished (brush teeth, go potty, read book, and sing song)


2 train tables and 2 shopping carts




Log cabin


3 steering wheels and a bunch of babies and baby beds
