A 10,000 sq ft gym, every day
Every Playbox child gets daily time in a full-size indoor gymnasium: soccer, floor hockey, obstacle courses, dance, or just running it out. On rainy Fraser Valley days, the gym means children still get to move.
Movement is not a break from learning here. It is how children learn. See our curriculum.
Weekend care for Langley families who work weekends
Playbox is one of the only weekend programs in the Fraser Valley. We are open Saturday and Sunday, 8am to 4pm, for ages 3 to 5, with the same educators, themed activities and gym time as weekdays.
Fees after CCFRI
Playbox participates in BC's Child Care Fee Reduction Initiative (CCFRI), and the reduction is applied automatically at the centre. Most families pay $733 to $788 a month after CCFRI: $788 for infants, $781 for toddlers and $733 for ages 3 to 5.
The Affordable Child Care Benefit can lower your fee further. See fees and subsidies
