Homeschoolers
Twirl Kidspace offers home-schoolers, parents and teachers the opportunity to come together in an inspiring setting to learn, create, play and socialize. We have set aside two dedicated times on Mondays and Wednesdays between 12pm and 3pm, for home school groups to enjoy our unique facilities on a free basis.

During these hours, home school groups can reserve the space for their own use. Alternatively, we will provide a facilitator-led activity based on our Kidspace Field Trip program. In addition, there will be the chance for self-directed play and exploration of our interactive Exhibit Area. The session can also be parent/teacher-led, focusing on what the group is currently studying. Numbers are limited to 24. To make a booking or for further information, contact Helen de Forte at 575-779-3413 or 575-776-2880, or email: kidspace@twirlhouse.com.

In addition, any home school group is welcome to join in our free Thursday and Saturday events. On Thursdays, we have Twirl Play Days from 3pm – 5pm, with a story and different craft activity every week. Saturday mornings is Twirl Explorers from 11am – 1pm, when children have the chance to learn new things about this world and beyond. Find out more in our main Kidspace section or download our monthly calendar.

School Groups
Twirl Kidspace is striving to be an accessible place for teachers to take their students for curriculum enhancement. Our interactive Exhibit Area is available for school children ages 5 to 12 years and their teachers to come together off-campus, free of charge, to learn, create and play, in an inspiring and educational setting.

Every Tuesday and Thursday, between 10am – 2pm, we offer free Kidspace Field Trips. for grades pre-K through Grade 5. During this time, the children will be introduced to a monthly theme based on our current highlighted exhibit.

In addition to self-exploration of our Exhibit Area, we will provide interactive activities, as well as some materials for pre- and post-visit classroom work. A new exhibit will be added each month through the end of the school year, with related monthly calendar topics.

We hope that area schools will make Twirl Kidspace a destination for their Kidspace Field Trips. Find out more in our Exhibit Program section, contact Helen de Forte at 575-779-3413 or 575-776-2880, or email: kidspace@twirlhouse.com.
