Reminder: Cafe au Play will be honoring Memorial Day as we will be closed to remember and honor the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our country. ❤️🤍💙

Thank you for your understanding as we reserve this time to be with our veterans and families during this meaningful holiday.

Memorial Day is also an opportunity to help our youth and young families learn the importance of remembrance, gratitude, and community.

Families can honor Memorial Day by:
• Visit and support the Durango Healing Fields
• Visiting memorials or placing flowers and flags
• Reading books together about service and sacrifice
• Taking a moment of silence together to reflect and remember
•Support your Veterans who have lost friends in service.

At Cafe au Play, we believe even our youngest children can begin learning kindness, gratitude, and respect through meaningful family traditions and community connection. 🇺🇸

Wishing everyone a safe and meaningful Memorial Day weekend.
