Established in 1987 in the Hatboro Baptist Church, Play and Learn Hatboro is located in the heart of downtown Hatboro.
Our center has 3 developmentally-appropriate play areas for the children.
Inside you'll find bright, cheerful classrooms for learning centers and play.
Play and Learn Hatboro offers a full-day Kindergarten licensed by the Pennsylvania Department of Education.
A small class size allows for children to spend more one on one time with the teacher and develop the appropriate skills necessary for their transition to public or private elementary school.
