The managers of the Downtown South Boston Farmers’ Market and the Halifax Market Place both are designing downtown “Thinkscapes” to promote childhood learning through play.
“The whole goal for the Thinkscape is to have a space dedicated to the kids of the community. I really want to encourage families to bring their children downtown and get them involved in the community,” said Megan Throckmorton-Harris, manager of the Downtown South Boston Farmers’ Market. “The Thinkscape will give the children a chance to learn and explore while their family sees what downtown South Boston has to offer.”
