Fitness Explorers is a workshop style program series that encourages movement & developmental skill development in children ages 2 to 4. Literacy will be part of the program as well. Parents & children will learn about fun ways to incorporate fitness & movement into their daily lives. They will receive information on nutrition and appropriate physical development for their child. We will include group activities, individual & partner activities, and intergenerational activities to include the parents & older siblings as well.
