Families
What's on in Wellington for babies, toddlers, preschoolers, kids and teens — sorted by age, dated, and pulled from the town's real event feed.
Family life in Wellington, sorted the way parents actually search: by how old your kid is. Wellington's feed carries 431 family listings in total, 242 of them dated in the next 60 days. The busiest family venues in the feed right now are Te Matapihi ki te Ao Nui Central Library (50) and Johnsonville Library (34). Pages with their own age sections: baby, toddler, preschool, kids, teens.
Start with the age pages if one fits — they're filtered hard, only real dated listings — or scan everything coming up below. If a band doesn't have a page yet, it's because the feed doesn't have enough dated listings for that age to fill one honestly, and we'd rather say that than pad it.
Baby (0–1) — 110 dated listings in the next 60 days, including Baby Rock and Rhyme.
Toddler (1–3) — 6 dated listings in the next 60 days, including Storytime : Game On!.
Preschool (3–5) — 45 dated listings in the next 60 days, including Storytime : Game On!.
Kids (5–12) — 37 dated listings in the next 60 days, including AI and Your Kids: An Open Conversation with Marianne Malmstrom.
Teens (13–18) — 22 dated listings in the next 60 days, including Try an RPG : Pathfinder for teens (14+) Registrations required.
Every family listing in the feed with a date in the next 60 days, soonest first — all ages together.

Ages in your house (tap the ones that fit):
Programs to watch:
The feed lists 242 dated family listings in the next 60 days across all ages — the Coming up section shows the soonest, and the age pages filter them down.
An age page only ships when the feed has at least 5 dated listings (or 3 regular programs) for that age in the next 60 days. Below that we'd be padding — so the band rides on this hub, with its real count shown, until the listings catch up.
The signup above: tell us the ages in your house and the programs you care about, and we flag registration windows for this town before they open — swim lessons and camp sign-ups especially.
