.:How to Find Us:.

We are located within Cornerstone Church in Caledonia, MI. Specifics on how to enter the building are always included in our Links & Info emails that are sent out the Friday before class starts.

.:The Group Space:.

We have a large group space with tables and chairs setup that can accomodate our group comfortably. Families are able to bring whatever they need to make the day work, including strollers and/or baby carriers, water bottles, as well as food/snacks. There’s also access to multiple bathrooms, a refrigerator, and a microwave as needed. We typically have a large open space for indoor games, sensory bins set out on our stage, and our Cultivating Commerce Supply Shop can be found in this area too.

Throughout the day, kids are welcome to purchase supplies for their classes and projects or take a break/snack at their table as needed. The group space is carpeted so we do ask that families be mindful about what type of food/drink they bring in so we do not stain or ruin the carpet. Food and drinks are only allowed in the group space, never in the classrooms please.

.:The Classrooms:.

We currently use 8 classrooms and have access to a full kitchen and an open indoor space to create many learning opportunities for each of our families. Each classroom has a sink station, tables and chairs, and access to a bathroom.

We do our best to provide at least one structured option and on unstructured option for each age group in each round we offer. Some classes are age or skill specific, but many allow for a variety of age groups to work together as this creates even more learning for all involved. We offer classes for ages 1-16 each day! Ages 0-1 are always welcome to be in our space too :)

We even have a Wittle Waddler space for littles to take naps and changing tables/nursing spaces available if needed. CCC is truly a place for the whole family to stick together as they learn and grow in community!

.:The Land:.

Just outside the space we use, we have access to approximately 35 acres of land! There’s a couple of large open fields for dodgeball, kickball, soccer, and other group games, as well as basketball and volleyball courts. We even have access to a fire pit and pond too.

Throughout the property, there’s a series of paved trails that share public access, but allow some of our classes to explore the plants in the fields and get some much needed movement time together! When the weather is cooperating, we often have ‘recess’ during our meal/snack break times or have some of our classes outdoors.
