The kids loved this program!

Boys & Girls Club

"The Adventure Club Game was a neat interactive activity which exposed our members to cities around the US while being engaged in physical movement as part of our healthy living initiative. The kids loved this program which allowed them to use technology and their phones with the QR codes as they reached certain destinations. We incorporated this activity into our weekly Triple Play program which encourages development of the mind, body and soul."

Everyone in the neighborhood wanted one!

Neighborhood Impact

"On the day the Active Discovery Kits were given out, one family went home and started playing with the items in it and the Activity Book, and before long the mom walked back to school with a wagon and told us that everyone in the neighborhood wanted a [kit] --would it be possible? Of course we sent her on her way with a wagon full of [kits]."

They were happy and super tired afterwards.

Boys & Girls Club

"Wow the kids loved the Art & Agility kits. I wasn’t sure how the full range of ages would respond to the Pointillism education and projects, but 15 minutes into the first session - they were into it! Everyone was quietly working - it was almost magical seeing them escape into art and be so peaceful. Their finished pictures were amazing too! The agility grids were cool - we played sprinting Tic Tac Toe, and then did lots of different movement patterns - everyone was happy and super tired afterwards. Thank you for coming up with such great kits. The staff and the kids look forward to them."
