KIDS NEED MORE ART
COMES TO PALM BEACH GARDENS!
Kids Need More Art programs are taught by art specialists who are not only passionate about what they do but are true advocates for the Visual Arts in our schools. Their evolving art curriculums are designed to be fun and engaging, while combining discipline-based art education (art production, art criticism, art history, and aesthetics) with real-life, academic connections. The City of Palm Beach Gardens is excited to welcome KNMA right here at our community center! For more information visit them online at kidsneedmoreart.com.
Tiny Kids: A Parent & Me Program
Toddlers and their moms or dads are invited to join us for some creative “together” time that is sure to become one of your favorite weekly activities! Each Tiny Kids class will offer an opportunity for little hands to get messy while engaging in an art activity. We will talk about ways to encourage self-expression through art, and each young artist will leave with a small gift that can be used to promote creativity at home for tiny kids. Start your toddler on an art journey with Kids Need More Art that will last a lifetime!

AMAZING TOTS
It’s never too early to introduce healthy activities into your child’s life. Amazing Tots uses sports as a catalyst for cognitive development. The extensive curriculum was developed by a doctor and endorsed by renowned childhood specialists. Basketball, volleyball, football, soccer, and track & field are introduced in a setting that allows for exploration, yet with structure and education to enable rapid development of motor skills. Color and shape recognition are fostered within obstacle course adventures and nutritional components, but most importantly we want your child to have fun!

AMAZING ATHLETES
Amazing Athletes is usually a child’s first introduction to sports. As a result, we seek to create a fun, non-competitive environment for developing a familiarity and requisite motor skills for 10 different sports, including lacrosse, tennis, golf, track & field, volleyball, football, baseball, basketball and soccer. Each class features various plyometric activities and stretching for warm-up, an obstacle course adventure, two sports using age-appropriate equipment (different sports each week), a Muscle Zoo where we teach a muscle group through mimicking an animal movement, a power food of the week in which we talk about the health benefits of eating a particular fruit or vegetable, culminating in a fun game that reinforces the skills previously taught.
