    Inside CDI
    Marcus L.

    CDI is a hidden gem of the Valley. It is a free educational space for children and toddlers to learn, explore, interact, read and play. This is their second location that officially opened on 10/12/21. The location of this magical play space is in an old church. The wood from the church pews have been repurposed into benches and decor inside the center. It also has a large gated parking lot with plenty of parking spaces. This educational play space feels like a small town inside. CDI offers six different themed play areas: Tree house slide, Friendly Farmers Market, Dr Giraffe's Health Clinic, Reading Circle, Transportation Station, and Busy Bee's area for smaller children and toddlers that also includes a nursing bathroom. All these fun play areas include themed toys. In the middle of the center are two tables for children to do interactive activities such as color, draw, paint, and play. This is a very clean play space. All the equipment and toys seem to be brand new and are cleaned throughout the day. CDI has a friendly staff and occasional school volunteers to help interact and play with the children. They also offer a interactive reading circle with a fun dance party at the end. This is our daughter's favorite part! Cubby holes are located by the entrance to put your coats, back packs, diaper bags, etc. Bathrooms are located on the far end of the facility. They have water fountains and a great refillable automatic water bottle station for reusable water bottles. I highly recommend CDI! Not only is this a free and safe educational play space for children and toddlers; they also offer great community outreach like food, donations, toys, books and specialized educational services for families. Check out the website for information regarding those services. Free sign up online and there is currently a 2 hour play time limit per session. This location is only currently open on Tuesdays and Thursdays but may change in the future.

    I strongly encourage you to check out Dogs Without Borders if you are looking to adopt a dog. Our…read more18 year old rescue dog passed away last year. We looked everywhere when we decided to find a new dog to keep our three year old pup company. After several weeks of looking I happened to find Dogs Without Borders and they had a dog that appealed to us. Communication with Chloe was very good and she answered all of my questions. After sending in a video and being vetted, we set up an appointment with the foster to meet Copita. The foster, Jewels, was also very helpful, accommodating and communicative. After making sure that we were a good fit and Copita got along well with our older pup, we proceeded with the adoption. Even after taking Copita, Jewels was available for follow up questions. The fee for adoption is very reasonable. Copita is home now settling in and we love her! There are so many dogs that need good homes. Please be sure to check out Dogs Without Borders!

    Writing this in honor of my late soul dog, Harper. I adopted Harper almost 14 years ago from Dogs…read moreWithout Borders. DWB are heavily active in social media and I followed them on Facebook. I saw Harper and went to one of the adoption fairs. I first signed up as a foster. Fostering was free and I had two week periods to foster and help dogs socialize at home peacefully before being adopted. Food was provided and one of the responsibility is dropping them off at the adoption fairs. As you can assume, I went back to the adoption fairs only to start the adoption process. The organization truly cares about their dogs, making sure they get the best medical treatment and are placed in the right homes. There is no pressure in adopting the dogs so if you are only capable of committing a short amount of time, they express nothing but gratitude. They finalize the adoption by doing a home inspection, making sure the home and family are suitable for their rescues. My parents have also adopted a dog a few weeks later and the whole experience was organized, comfortable and smooth. I highly recommend fostering, donating to DWB and/or volunteering in this organization. Their staff and network of volunteers are truly angels .

    How many hundreds of times have I driven by the Tarzana Community & Cultural Center? It has been…read moremany years, way back to the time there was a pottery store on the property. I finally had a chance to visit for a Tarzana Music Night last week. What a fun event! Because the weather was being forecasted to be cool with the potential of rain, the event was held indoors. Things were comfortable, but we were in close quarters with the other attendees. The sound was great and the performances were a lot of fun. I was primarily there to see a good friend perform, but I also had the chance to see some other talented musicians. I think each one was a singer songwriter, and I enjoyed each performance. Each one of the people that was working at the venue, which I imagine may have been on a volunteer basis, was friendly and a lot of fun. Normally the music nights are held outdoors, and I can imagine that most of the year, it is a lot of fun being in the open air.

    What a cool place I never knew was here! Check out their events on their website! If you write them…read morethey will write you back too. They have a small outdoor stage with string lights hanging beautifully all around, a few picnic tables and fold out chairs for when there's an event to watch. When the chairs aren't there I imagine thats what they use for the outdoor dance floor under the stars, too! A few people brought their dogs on leash. I saw a few people brought in their own food, chilled out and ate while they watched the live band. They do have a very small amount of drinks, chips, and cookies for sale at a stand but thats it so if you don't want junk food def bring what you do want. They do have an indoor bathroom. PARKING - Def uber/LYFT to them. There are only a few spots in the back you can get to from the side street (not from Ventura blvd) and thats it! So do yourself a favor and get a ride. Lyft must know about this place because the driver knew exactly where to meet us in the back when we booked our return. For us it was a calm but fun summer evening hang outside! I don't know what its like without a band playing but hope I get a chance to check that out too.
