Join us for Little Hillers Playground Group 2025
A Hopkinton tradition for over 30 years!

Our mission this summer remains the same as always: to provide a safe place for kids to get outside and be active, to make some new friends and reconnect with old ones, and most importantly, have fun. The majority of our enthusiastic and engaging counselors including our Junior Hillers Director, Julia Thissell, attended Playground Group themselves and are eager to pass on the fun memories they have of their time at Playground Group. Every Little Hillers receives a t-shirt and water bottle!

Little Hillers is located at Elmwood School for a fun-filled week of arts and crafts, sports, and games. Each week features a a weekly theme, in-house entertainment, and a field trip!

NEW THIS SUMMER! We’re excited to partner with our friends at OARS 3 Rivers to bring their Water Wise Workshops to our summer program! Over the course of four Mondays, kids will dive into fascinating topics!
Get ready for a fun and educational splash into the world of water!
