WE’RE MOVING!
We have some exciting news to share - Lilypad is MOVING to a beautiful new space on East Passyunk Avenue near Mifflin Street! Here are some good-to-know dates:
11/14: last day to shop in store
11/15: sidewalk sale 9-1pm
11/15: last day for online orders
11/30: last day for donations
11/30: last day for online pickups
11/30: last playgroup
We are not currently booking Birthday parties until our new space is up and ready :)
WHY?
After 10 years of playtime at our beloved S Broad Street location, our service has shifted. We now also serve families with Lilypad Thrift DAILY by accepting donations and operating a thrift store with consistent hours.
It’s time to move the shop out of the basement and make it more accessible :)
WHEN?
Over the next few months! Playgroup will run through November 30th. Lilypad thrift will keep regular hours through Nov 14th. We will announce specific dates for re-opening in the new space. The store will re-open first and the playspace soon after!
We hope to open fully VERY soon, please stay tuned for details!
WHERE?
Lilypad’s new home will be at 1841 E Passyunk Avenue! The store will be street level (YAY) with playgroups upstairs on the second floor. There will be a separate entrance for playgroups on Iseminger street as well.
We look forward to reaching even more South Philly families!
WILL THIS EFFECT MEMBERSHIP?
Since there may be a 4-6 week without playgroups, memberships will extend to make up for any lost play time.
HOW CAN I HELP?
Support our fundraisers, events and volunteer opportunities.
Shop at Lilypad Thrift and attend our final sidewalk sale on 11/15/25.
Stay tuned on social media for sneak peeks.
Share feedback and ideas with us as we plan for an exciting new location for South Philly families!
If you have connections to foundations who give out grants or donations that may align with our mission, we’d be so grateful for your help in connecting us.
