Started my own group.
Mine is for all ages, but you could advertise it as whatever you wanted.
You'll get more homeschoolers if you don't make it age exclusive, because a
Mom might not come if she has all ages and thinks she can only bring the
youngers.
But you could say you're looking for some younger playmates for a park day,
or swimming, or hanging out somewhere.....
Our group had gotten together for a park day once a week, all ages.
This year, I've started a resource day. We have a community center reserved
for three hours, once a week. There will be art supplies, sports equipment,
musical instruments etc... and the kids can hang out and dabble with whatever
they want.
If you set it up, you have the advantage of choosing the tone of the group.
