POSH & PETITE PLAYHOUSE

Posh & Petite Playhouse was imagined by Jennifer Deeley, an L.A. mom of twins who had a vision of an encaptivating, whimsical place where children's imaginations could soar while parents and caregivers relaxed. The 4,400-square-foot venue includes a café with healthy options, a full gourmet espresso bar, a boutique with trendy children’s’ clothes, interactive playhouses, a custom play structure, a fenced-in soft play area, an adult lounge area with clear line of sight to children, and many toys and learning activities.

Posh & Petite Playhouse encourages children to get as imaginative and creative as possible. During open play, the Imagination Explorers lead games and activities, including puppet shows, story time, bubble dance parties, and more. Open play is weekdays 10:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. On weekends, they plan and host custom events and birthday parties that only dreams are made of.
