About

Our Journey

Welcome to Imagine That Playdates! I’m Mayamu Drechsler, a proud wife and mother of two wonderful children. With a background in education, including a degree from the University of Rhode Island and certification from Providence College, I spent six fulfilling years as a middle school advisor with the College Crusade. However, the challenges of being a stay-at-home mom opened my eyes to the struggles many parents face—scheduling playdates, managing screen time, and fostering lasting interests for our kids.

Determined to merge my passion for education with my love for imaginative adventures, I founded Imagine That Playdates. Here, I create immersive scenes and scenarios that encourage children to unleash their creativity through free play. My goal is to provide a space where parents can relax and witness their children’s imaginations bloom, free from the pressures of screen time and structured activities. Join us as we embark on a journey of endless possibilities and watch your child’s imagination soar!
