All Kids Like to Play in the Mud!

Mud Puppies was conceived to give children the opportunity for an intensive experience with clay in a relaxed and cooperative environment. Now entering our 25th year, Mud Puppies has allowed artist and owner Susan Grieder to combine her passion for working with children with her love of clay to provide a unique learning opportunity to the community.

Students spend part of their day learning and creating pieces in a group environment in our updated indoor/outdoor workspace recently renovated. Individual and group attention gives students the freedom to create and express themselves and feel proud of their accomplishments. Susan's core philosophy is about giving children the tactile experience of engaging with clay without fear of getting dirty.  Let's play in the mud!

Swim

Our kids get to swim in a beautiful pool under he care of a lifeguard, enjoying sun, exercise and games.  The pool was recently renovated and resurfaced in late 2018 and is ready for everyone to enjoy!  The pool features a slide and some sun shades above.  There is also a pool house with more fun games.  Something for every child!
