Developmental Activities

The Educators at each program work together to develop and implement activities based on the interests and developmental levels of the children. The activities will include indoor and outdoor games, sports, creative arts and crafts, skill building activities and homework areas. Each program offers a variety of choices for your child to choose from. Full day programs offer field trips, educational or entertaining visitors, and more. Snacks are provided at each school age program. Children bring lunches from home for the full day programs.
