“Read, Play, Win!” is co-sponsored by The Arizona Republic and the Arizona Diamondbacks. Children, birth to age 18, can earn prizes by reading 50 pages or listening to a book being read for 15 minutes. As a special “signing incentive,” children will receive a voucher for a ticket to a Diamondbacks’ game.

Are you looking for a different sport for your kids -- or as odd as it sounds -- a great summer sport like Ice Hockey? Local Polar Ice locations offer a free trial lesson and assessment. The Phoenix Coyotes sponsor free hockey clinics as well! http://coyotes.nhl.com/club/page.htm?id=86688

WeePlayAZStore – Occasionally, I will post about activities that we do or things that we use that people ask about. I will post items in the WeePlayAZStore for that reason. The carts listed are the same ones that they are selling at the Children’s Museum in Phoenix.
Places Around Town – If it is a place for kid’s to visit for fun, we’ll list it here! Museums, play lands, zoos, parks, jump places, etc.
Weekly Events -- Our calendar focuses on special events, so we put a list of weekly storytimes,
monthly crafts, etc. here.
Blog – WeePlayAZ did not want to be the last webpage on earth to jump on the blog bandwagon, so viola, a blog we have!
