Port Discovery is all about learning through play and one of the best times to play is around Halloween. We are gearing up for a wonderful night full of pumpkin-themed games, ghost stories, a Halloween game show and many more! All the activities and crafts were created by our staff and kept you and your little one in mind. Make Rattle Your Bones a safe and fun family tradition to celebrate every year!
