Where do preschoolers find more play friends?

Our son sees basically the same two children every evening in East Marredpally. He is happy, but I would like him to have a wider circle without turning every playtime into a structured class. Parks are a bit hit-and-miss for finding children around his age. What has worked for local families?

    Our nearby park gets a little busier after the evening heat drops. Not a formal group, just the same families returning.

      Good point, we keep going at different times and probably never catch the regular crowd.

    We found two playmates through another parent at preschool, but it took a few awkward introductions first.

    I prefer an unstructured hour too. One new child at a time works better for mine than a big party.

    Weekends are tricky because everyone has plans; weekday play is actually more predictable for us.
