Do you love the scientific method? Are you raising little critical thinkers in a world of woo? Are you appalled that baby acupuncture exists? Do you vaccinate your kids?

If so than this is the group for you!

We have a 3 year old and we are looking to build a community for ourselves and for our daughter. We would like to have not only discussion meet ups, but outings as well where we can expose our kids to science and the world around us.  We are a parenting playgroup where kids and parents alike can feel comfortable to debate and challenge each other in an open freethinking environment where no topics are off limits.

We are actively involved with Foundation Beyond Belief to further expand the community of like-minded families!

We welcome anyone who is interested in some good healthy discussions and opportunities for our kids to play!

"Science adjusts it’s beliefs based on what’s observed
Faith is the denial of observation so that Belief can be preserved." Tim Minchin from Storm
