Come and enjoy our beautiful LEKA Garden or relax in the cool AC indoors.

Our Garden is open!

Our outdoor space is officially open! We are awaiting a couple of more water play toys and decor, but we are 95% finished.

The space is mostly shaded and shoes and socks are optional. We also offer loaner crocs and sandals because it can get wet out there. We also have kids' waterproof aprons for the waterplay. We suggest bringing a change of clothes, or at least an extra pair of socks as they often get wet.

LEKA Garden rules:

✅ Indoor toys stays inside
✅ Outside toys stay outside
✅ Keep water at the water tables
✅ Food and drinks are permitted outside, but please eat by chairs and tables only
✅ No wet socks inside, please!

Note: the outdoor space will be closed on very chilly or rainy spring days.

The outdoor space will also be open when we are hosting birthday parties for no extra charge!

Visit our fun, shaded garden with a playhouse and waterplay!

Next time you come in to play, bring a brand new and unopened toy and put in our toy drive bin. Do not wrap the toy. Our goal is to collect 1️⃣0️⃣0️⃣ toys in 30 days!

Our toy drive bin will be available until 12/15.

Big thanks to @kgwnews for organizing this toy drive!

1-year anniversary party and fundraiser for CHAP!

We have made it through a full year, and it’s all thanks to you! The love and support we've received during our first year open have been heartwarming! Childhood is a short season, and our entire staff feels blessed we get to see your children play and enjoy their time at LEKA every day ❤️

On Sunday, October 2 we will celebrate our 1st anniversary with fun events and happenings at LEKA for you and your little ones. All profits from this day will be donated to CHAP, a local non-profit in Portland. Its mission is to bring the healing power of art to children and families facing medical challenges in our community.
Consider donating on their website at chappdx.org/give or bring brand new art supplies to LEKA on the day of the event and we will drop them off at CHAP for you.

All events are free this day with paid admission ($15/child). You can also use your punch card to enter this day. Due to all the fun events this day we are expecting to be busier than usual and will open a waitlist if needed. We suggest checking current capacity here before heading over.
