Special Programs
- Health and Fitness - Recent studies show that our society, through the comforts of technology and fast food, enables childhood obesity, which has reached epidemic proportions. Kids ‘R’ Kids knows how important physical activity is to any child’s development. We have Stretch & Grow, an unique Health and Fitness Program which provides all the tools for pre-school age kids to learn and enjoy how to be healthy. Throughout this program Ms. Bobbi emphasizes healthy bodies, the food pyramid, family style dining, and physical fitness. We also provide Happy Feet for our pre-schoolers. The program stresses the importance of fair play, team cooperation, and physical well-being while teaching basic soccer skills to the kids.
- Music - This fun class is used for all ages of children at Kids R Kids. It is led by a board certified music therapist and is designed to reinforce what our children are learning in the classrooms. Social skills such as decision making, problem solving, turn taking, self expression, and non-verbal communication are addressed during music therapy. Developmentally appropriate cognitive goals are reinforced through songs and teaacher led questons. A typical music class will include: singing, instrument playing, dancing, and sign language.
