Curio Exploration Hub

Best kept secret in Barrie. A great place for your kids to learn and play. Lots of creative and thinking play areas. My granddaughter went to summer camp there then we decided to ask to have her birthday party there recently. The staff is amazing and nice. No trouble at all everyone was happy. Thank you so much for the accommodation. Just remember to wear your mask. Love this place. Check it out.

We had our son’s 3rd birthday here and everything was great! The space was ready upon arrival with a separate “party room” for snacks and belongings. We went with Curio because we loved the idea of having the environment to ourselves and not sharing it with 4 other parties going on at the same time, and felt the price was extremely reasonable. It allowed the kids to actually explore and play with one another. We also loved that we were able to bring in whatever we wanted in terms of balloons, decor and party snacks. It was our first time here and we will definitely be back.

Where do I begin? I was first recommended to Curio by a mother that I met through my daughters swim class. I guess the events played out as it was meant to be. We were new in the Barrie area and was looking for something alternative to daycare preschool and this is the best place we can ever imagining sending our daughter to. Our daughter also attended the summer camps throughout the summer season. Curio is not militant in approach, it’s paybased learning. The energy is easy and casual which we love. Stephanie is wonderful, she loves children and doing what she does we could tell the moment we met her!! She is super flexible and open to your comments, suggestions & recommendations. Our daughter also loves, loves, loves the teachers there, (Maddie & Adam). They are fantastic and all the children are obsessed with them. If you are a parent looking for something more than just a daycare with some flexibility in your child’s schedule, which for us open up space for other extra curricular activities, Curio is the place!!!

From summer camps, to preschool programs, to Christmas and Halloween parties … my kids have loved Curio SO much! Steph, the owner, is amazing and she has the most amazing teachers that my 3 children have all loved. By far the best camp and preschool program that my kids have ever been to in Barrie!

This place is amazing ! Both our children have greatly benefited from being part of Curio. Our daughter is part of the Day Camp. At first she was nervous to be away from us but once she walked through the Curio doors, she forgot about us and the fun began for her. When picking her up she comes home in a positive mood and always enjoys telling us about the cool things she’s done at Curio. The owner, Stephanie is also a pleasure to deal with and cares so much about the children. She takes time to get to know the children. If you have children that need to be engaged, send them over to Curio. You will be glad you did!
