Kids Network's Cure for Winter Blues

Finally back to school! I’m sure that was the thought on every parent’s mind after the extra long winter break. Being stuck inside is never fun, especially for kids who seem to have an abundance of energy. Kids Network is no exception to that; with frigid temperatures and snow packed playgrounds our kids don’t always have the opportunity to go outside. As always, kids have the option of playing group games at their sites, but in order to help combat the winter blues and to provide some variety we are giving Kids Network sites new recreational programs.

Each site will be given two separate weeks over the course of the semester to utilize two new programs. Programs range from giant interactive board games for teaching basketball and soccer skills, to indoor Frisbee golf, and speed stacking! Our intent with these programs is to give our kids new opportunities for recreation while being safe and having fun.
