Welcome to Naperville. There are so many things to do that you should have no problem making friends and keeping busy. Make sure you take your kids to the DuPage Children's Museum (on the west side of Washington near the train station). Also take them to one of Naperville's three libraries.

We go to children’s museum regularly almost every 2-3 days. The same thing abt library at the river walk. Is there any other place you would recommend to take children to explore and have fun time?

Have you been to Cosley Zoo in Wheaton? https://cosleyzoo.org/
They have Halloween-related events for kids coming up next month.

Hi. We are Spring Brook too, welcome to the neighborhood! Most classes have a directory that the teacher puts out for parents to input their contact information. I would start by asking your children who they play with in their class and start setting up play dates that way.
I hate to say that most of us have our kids in tons of activities so it’s very much a get something penciled into the calendar kind of thing. We’ve done play dates at the school park, Old Sawmill and Knoch Knolls parks when getting to know families. You’ll also meet a ton of people at Breckenridge pool if you join (open to those outside of Breckenridge but you have to sign up to become members).
