Parents seeking fun activities for their young children, and a venue where they can share experiences with other parents, will soon have a place designed and built with them in mind.
Dr. Amber Bartlett, owner of two businesses, today announced the January opening of her third business – Asher’s Sandbox. Named for Amber’s four-year-old son Asher, Asher’s Sandbox will offer a clean, fun, large, indoor sandbox for kids to dig, build and play – but the business will include so much more.
Amber said, “Whether you are looking for a rainy-day activity, a unique party venue or a place to connect with other parents navigating this beautiful chaos called parenthood, Asher’s Sandbox is for you! Let your kids dig, build, create and explore in a clean, organized environment! This 2800 square foot building located at 286 Main St., Plympton, will be a meeting place that is unique, educational and fun – and welcoming to kids and parents alike!
Asher’s Sandbox will offer:
• Open play sessions
• Mommy & me classes
• Sand yoga
• Sand meditation
• Birthday parties
• Special events
Dr. Bartlett is also the owner of The Barker House, a grooming, boarding and daycare facility for dogs, and her business psychology practice. And what led this serial entrepreneur in this direction? She recalls a recent time when Asher, who saw an indoor sandbox on TV and said to her, “Mommy, you’re supposed to take me here.”
“That moment stuck with me,” she recalls. “As a serial entrepreneur, ideas are always swirling, but this one felt different. This one felt like it was meant to be. And when I found the perfect space for lease, I knew it was the right time.”
She said, “Asher’s Sandbox is not just a playspace. It is the community spot that we all need. It is a place for local classes, events, parties, and play; a place where our kids can explore tactile play in a clean, safe, organized environment and make new friends. It is a place where we, the parents, the caregivers, the tired humans keeping tiny humans alive – can build real relationships with people who understand the joys and struggles.”
In addition to space for children, there will be adult classes and workshops, and special programming to bring people together beyond open play. Asher’s Sandbox will offer opportunities to learn, connect, and try new things – it is a space meant to be used, shared, and lived in.
