Welcome to Manhattan Playhouse — the largest and most dynamic indoor play space on the Upper East Side, designed for children ages 0–12. Curated by the same passionate founder behind Manhattan Schoolhouse and We Skoolhouse, Manhattan Playhouse was created with one big goal: to bring the power of play to life in a way that supports every stage of child development — while also being fun.

 

As an early childhood educator, mom, and lifelong believer in hands-on learning, I know that play is more than just fun — it’s foundational. From building confidence and problem-solving skills to sparking creativity and collaboration, our thoughtfully designed environment helps children grow in every way.

 

I am so glad you’re here — and I can’t wait to create a community together and play!

​With love,

 

The Founder of Manhattan Playhouse
