Registration is open Monday for the Surprise Parks and Recreation Department’s highly anticipated Tot Time program for 2025-26.

Surprise residents can secure their spots starting Aug. 4, with non-residents going on Aug. 11.

Tot Time is a state-licensed program that focuses on kindergarten readiness through a blend of educational and recreational activities for children aged 3 to 5.

The program operates from Tuesday, Sept. 2 to Thursday, May 14, 2026, at Sierra Montana Recreation Center, 14861 N. Spring Lane, and Countryside Recreation Center, 15038 N. Parkview Place.

It will run from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m Mondays through Thursdays.

Activities include circle time, arts and crafts, educational centers and social skill building.

The weekly fee is $60 for residents and $80 for non-residents.

There is also a one-time registration fee of $30 (resident) or $50 (non-resident).

Space is limited, so early registration is strongly recommended.
