Thanks to all your support and encouragement, we’re taking the dive and opening a Little Sprouts Play Cafe in Mequon! We’re bringing everything you love about our Shorewood location into a new space for Ozaukee County.
At Little Sprouts Mequon, you can expect the same focus on imagination play, award-winning birthday parties, tasty food, and attention to cleanliness. We’ve been busy planning and building our new space – complete with custom-built areas for your kids. We’re excited to announce that we have a unique opportunity to add something extra special to this space. A builder has presented us with an idea for a low-lofted, double playhouse feature piece. We’d love to dive in to get it built, but the project has come into the work plan late. We hope to account for the additional construction and here’s where we ask for your help.
The proposed houses will be lofted about 3 feet off the ground. Kids will be able to use a staircase or rockwall to climb to the loft level. They can get down using the stairs or an installed slide feature. The lofted area will include TWO houses – separated by an open, greenery area in the center. Kids will be able to pretend to water the flower boxes, mow the lawn, use the pretend outdoor grill, and play as much ‘house’ as their hearts desire. The wooden structure will make a beautiful, engaging space for your kids to explore.
We’ve been assured that the house feature can be built in our timeline, but we’re asking for some help from our friends to push the project forward. To rally some support, we’ve pulled together unique opportunities for our new space!
If we’re lucky enough to extend past our goal, we have some other features we’d love to add to further enhance our space. These additional features will extend beyond toys to include birthday party enhancements, special events, and additional parenting support programs.
Thank you for your contributions! Play and birthday rewards will be delivered electronically. Physically rewards will be delivered in person or via mail as needed.

Hey there! Time for some formal introductions.
Meet Adrienne (on the right) – owner of the Shorewood Little Sprouts Play Cafe and now co-owner of the Mequon Little Sprouts Play Cafe. Her & her husband have 2 awesome daughters. Those daughters were the original inspiration for Little Sprouts. Now, three years later, it’s been really fun bringing them along for the ride of the second locations.
Meet Emilie (on the left) – co-owner of the Mequon Little Sprouts Play Cafe. WIth her husband and 2 sons, Emilie brings a whole new perspective to this play cafe’s development! Her kids are already found popping into the work space to lend a hand. ;)
We’re both thrilled to be partnering on this new venture. And, we’re so excited to open our doors. It’s been a wild ride, but the end is near.
The space has been measured and the plan has been mocked up. We have materials picked out for the structure. The timeline has also been set. The main risk we see is not pulling together enough funds. If we’re unable to fund this project, we won’t be able to customize this space so amazingly!
