Parents' Night Out @ The Nest!

*Now being held in the Preschool Wing at Binkley Baptist Church- 1712 Willow Drive Chapel Hill, NC 27514*

During these events, kids are invited to play and explore at The Nest while parents enjoy an evening out. This fun-filled night will include exhibit play & exploration, dinner from Alfredo's Pizza Villa, and a show to wind down at the end of the night. This is a drop-off (childcare) program for children ages 3-9 (must be *potty independent). Kids will have a chance to exercise their minds, bodies, imagination, and independence.

To make sure we have plenty of fun activities and yummy food ready for everyone, please sign up at least a week ahead of time. We can’t wait to see your little ones!"

While we recommend signing up at least a week in advance to ensure we have enough kids for all the fun activities and food, please note that online sales end at 4pm on the day of the program. If you're looking to register your child for the program after 4pm, please call (919) 933-1455 to speak with a staff member to complete your registration.  If you would like to be added to the waitlist for a sold-out date, please email tanya@ncchildrensmuseum.org

  • Attendees must be between the ages of 3-9. This policy is firm, no exceptions. 

  • Drop-off begins at 6pm. Early drop-off at 5:30pm can be added for $5.00 per child. (This applies to all participants, including members.) Pick-up is by 9pm.**

  • Please bring a water bottle labeled with your child's name to this program. 

  • Children are welcome to wear pajamas & bring pillows/blankets for the show.

  • Children must be potty independent to attend this program.
