We also offer teacher led activities based on our exciting weekly themes.  The children have the chance to participate in science club, Junior Achievement, kidz fit(certain schools) and kidz lit within the program.  We offer healthy morning and afternoon snacks, no school day and early release care, and monthly swim trips to the YMCA. Children are engaged throughout the day in age appropriate activities, active games and outside time. Our program is a great opportunity for children to have fun, make new friends, and participate in activities.
