About Us
Welcome to 914 PLAYS —
Where Creativity & Exploration Come to Life!
At 914 PLAYS, we believe that every child deserves a space to explore, create, and discover the world around them. Founded by Jasmine Scott, a passionate early childhood special educator, our playgroups are designed to nurture your child’s developmental milestones while fostering a love for creativity.
Our classes are carefully crafted to offer hands-on activities that engage your toddler’s senses and spark their imagination. At 914 PLAYS, little ones can scoop, build, imagine, and create — blending sensory fun with dramatic play and hands-on learning.
We understand the importance of parent-child connection, so we ensure that every class offers opportunities for you to bond with your little one while they explore new textures, colors, and sounds.
Whether you’re looking for an enriching way to spend time with your toddler or a community of like-minded families, 914 PLAYS is here to offer an experience that both you and your child will cherish.
Why Choose 914 PLAYS?
Whether it’s your first time trying a sensory play class or you’ve explored others before, you’ll feel the difference the moment you walk into 914 PLAYS. Our classes are more than messy fun; they’re thoughtfully designed experiences where child-led play meets educator-guided learning.
Each week’s play space is intentionally planned using my background in early intervention and early childhood education. Every material, play space, and theme supports developmental growth while encouraging children to discover, imagine, and connect in their own unique way.
What Makes Us Different
- Thematic Pretend Play: Every week features a dramatic play stand that ties into our theme, inviting children to step into new roles, expand imagination, and build storytelling skills.
-Language Development Through Play: As children engage, they naturally grow their vocabulary, communication, and confidence with teacher support and meaningful interaction.
-Parent & Caregiver Connection: Our classes are designed for shared play. Parents join in the fun, build connections with others, and see the learning happening in every joyful moment.
-Child-Led, Teacher-Supported: Play flows at the child’s pace. With gentle educator support, curiosity turns into discovery, and discovery into learning.
-Thoughtfully Planned Spaces: Every sensory bin, prop, and invitation to play is chosen with purpose, blending sensory exploration, creativity, and developmental intention.
At 914 PLAYS, you’re not just joining a class; you’re joining a community that celebrates play, learning, and connection.
🌟 Our Play Philosophy🌟
At 914 PLAYS, we believe sensory play is just the beginning. Our philosophy blends hands-on exploration with imaginative, pretend play — because when children step into roles, tell stories, and act out real-life experiences, they’re building language, social skills, and creativity in powerful ways.
Every class includes a themed dramatic play setup that changes weekly. One week it might be a farmers market or a fire station, the next a bakery or doctor’s office — all designed to spark storytelling and extend the weekly theme in meaningful ways.
Why it works: This clearly shows you go beyond “bins and textures.” You’re curating immersive, story-driven learning experiences.
What is Sensory Play?
Sensory play is more than just messy fun. It’s how little ones learn best! By scooping, squishing, pouring, and exploring with their senses, toddlers build important skills while having a blast.
Benefits of sensory play include:
• 🧠 Boosts brain development and problem-solving skills through hands-on exploration
• 🖐️ Improves fine motor skills and coordination by strengthening small hand muscles
• 🗣️ Encourages language development and creative thinking through shared play and discovery
Sensory play helps children understand the world around them, experiment freely, and gain confidence through curiosity and movement.
What is Pretend Play?
Pretend play, also called imaginative or dramatic play, is when children use their imagination to act out real-life situations, stories, or roles. Whether they are “cooking” in a play kitchen, “caring” for a baby doll, or “driving” a fire truck, they are doing more than just playing—they are learning how the world works.
Benefits of sensory play include:
• 🗣️ Builds language and communication skills as children act out stories and talk through their ideas
• 💭 Encourages creativity and flexible thinking by helping them imagine endless possibilities
• 💕 Supports social and emotional growth through cooperation, empathy, and perspective-taking
• 🤲 Strengthens problem-solving and planning skills as they create and adapt their play scenarios
Pretend play helps little ones make sense of their world, express big feelings, and connect with others while having fun and exploring their imaginations.

Had such a great time at 914 Plays with my kids today! The atmosphere was awesome – really welcoming and fun. The play stations are totally geared towards preschoolers, and my kids were loving it. They were laughing, playing, and getting their hands dirty in the best way possible. Jasmine was amazing too, so attentive and engaging with the kids. If you're looking for a fun activity for your little ones, I highly recommend giving 914 Plays a try. We can't wait to go back!

My son and I had such a blast at our Free Play session with 914Plays. I decided to sign him up for 2 more sessions and he's been loving it! This type of sensory play really peaks his interests. In these sessions, he's able to really explore and socialize.

Savannah, who is 2, had a blast playing at 914 Plays on June 7th. The space was clean and organized. Jasmine, who ran the sensory exploration, was pleasant and informative! The theme for the day was about frogs. Each station was specific to the theme with a water station, craft station, and three others that explored different textures to touch. The session was 45 minutes, which was the perfect amount of time for my child's attention span. I had been looking for activities in the area to not only meet other parents, but to engage my daughter in different ways to play. I would highly recommend checking this out!

I absolutely loved this toddler sensory class! It was such a hands-on and engaging experience. My son had the best time exploring all the different sensory stations. Each one was thoughtfully set up to stimulate creativity, curiosity, and motor skills. He was so engaged in the activities that he actually cried when it was time to leave, that’s how much fun he had! The class is perfect for toddlers who love to explore and play. We can’t wait to come back!
