EVENT TIMES & DATES

Below is a sample month from our AECPTA Members Event Calendar to see the variety of activities we host for families with children ages 0–5. From playgroups and park playdates in Allen, Plano, and McKinney to weekend family outings, field trips, and parent education programs, our calendar is filled with opportunities to connect. This snapshot gives parents and caregivers a sense of how often we meet, where events take place, and what types of gatherings our early childhood parent group offers across Collin County.

Don’t see an event time that works for you? Our members and prospective members have a wide range of schedules, and gatherings are planned at times that work best for families. If you’re a current member, our events team is happy to help organize a new playgroup, meetup, or family activity that fits your availability. We want every parent, caregiver, and child to feel included in our community calendar.

Remember Events are when members choose!

The more families that join our parent group, the more playgroups, meetups, and family activities we can schedule. More members mean more events, more times, and more options for busy parents, grandparents, and caregivers of babies, toddlers, preschoolers, and young kids. If the current calendar doesn’t fit your schedule, that doesn’t mean you’re left out—you can step up as a leader and create a playdate or gathering that works for you. Our community in Allen, Plano, McKinney, Fairview, Lucas, Parker, and across Collin County is full of parents ready to help with toddler entertainment, stroller walks, preschooler playdates, and even crowd control at the park to keep little ones safe. AECPTA gives you the freedom to shape events around your family’s needs while connecting with others who understand life with kids under 5 (and over 5).
