Pikopye’s Town o ers imaginative play spaces As a single mom, Leah Reed was looking for a place where she could get work done while her son could safely play. “I thought that if I can’t nd something like that, then I might as well build it,” Reed said. The details Pikopye’s Town is just as much for parents as it is for kids, Reed said, with nine custom playhouses and a lounge. The space can also be reserved for birthday parties, and is meant for kids age 6 and younger. Reed said she hopes the love she and her team share for each other translates to the work that goes into running Pikopye’s Town. “It’s not just the community outside of this business; it’s a community inside of this business,” Reed said. “That is what makes us unique—not the business but my people.”
Each house in Pikopye’s Town is named after those special to owner Leah Reed, including her son Micah.
