Defining their greatness

We happen to believe that kids are pretty great to begin with

Our after school program, holiday breaks and summer camps are designed to help kids dig a little deeper and find those ambitions, traits and talents that will help them define their personal greatness.

From fun character-building and STEAM-based activities to social interactions with real staying power, our G.Y.M curriculum® is ideal for “Growing Young Minds” – providing your child with the tools necessary to make their dreams a reality.

Shared experiences lead to lasting friendships

They go together like peanut butter and jelly

Social development is an important part of the role we play in your child’s life. Whether after school or during one of our camps, our program gives kids a chance to interact in a fun, stress-free and collaborative environment. Memory making occurs here daily as kids share experiences, and laughter is sure to erupt during action-packed activities.

Digging a little deeper to find those ambitions, traits and talents

Kids try new things as they gain confidence

Forming friendships and tackling challenges together are only part of the equation to becoming more confident. Opportunity and encouragement play major roles, too. That’s why our engaged teachers inspire kids to explore unchartered territories like sports, art, drama, science, technology, cooking and more.

Finding a passion and unearthing an unknown talent go a long way in building a kid’s sense of self-worth – assuring them they are truly enough, and their potential greatness knows no bounds!

Where curiosity launches innovation everyday

Curiosity launches innovation!

More robust than most, our innovative after school program is thoughtfully engineered for K – 5th grade students! We provide a wide variety of activity clubs to fit their interests and homework clubs to ensure their scholastic success, while providing dedicated homework-free family time at the end of the day.

Our program serves as an impactful segue between the demands of school and the comforts of home, and our extended hours alleviate some of your stress, too! It’s about more than snacks and blowing off steam on the playground, we’re expanding their minds to new possibilities and encouraging them to act on new-found passions.

G.Y.M. Curriculum® for School Age

Growing Young Minds Curriculum®, or G.Y.M. is the premise behind our curriculum for this age group.

Kids ‘R’ Kids believes after-school time should be spent encouraging social and emotional growth as well as continuing academic growth through activities and games. At any age, it’s best to learn through play and Kids ‘R’ Kids even takes this philosophy into account for the big kids.
