Text "HI"
Drop us a text. We ask the basics — your block, your kids' ages, what they're into. Under two minutes, no forms.
Stoop texts you the local stuff worth knowing — story times, pop-ups, classes, free shows, the spot that just opened. Personalized for your family. No app, no scrolling, no "what should we do today?"

Every other day we text 3 picks — what's on near you. Story times, pop-ups, free park programs, the place everyone's been talking about.
Reply ❤️ or ⏭️ on any pick. Stoop gets sharper — more of what your family actually shows up for, less of what they don't.
What's on
From toddler story times to weekend science labs — the kind of tip your most-plugged-in friend would slip you over a coffee.
From early parents
Early parents say Stoop saves the Friday-night scramble and turns up stuff they'd never have found.
"I used to burn 30 minutes Googling every Friday. Now I get 3 picks by text and we pick one."
"The picks actually fit my kid's age. Stoop turned us on to two classes we go to every week now."
"Texted 'free indoor stuff' on a rainy day and had options in seconds. It's the parent group chat in my pocket."
