Many kids are spending more time looking at screens than ever before. This also means kids are engaged in less physical activity and fewer social activities. Many parents are juggling work and distance learning, leaving little time to consider extracurricular activities. Many families are also conscious of preventing the spread of COVID-19 and may be unsure about health and safety procedures related to youth activities.
Youth programs for every child
The Y opens access to opportunities, relationships, and resources for kids to be who they are and become who they want to be. During a time when kids are struggling with social isolation, the Y is here to offer programs in a safe and healthy environment.
Find fun and safety at the Y
Register your child for a five-week session to engage their body and mind. Your child will be surrounded by caring adults and other kids in a values-based environment at the Y. Health and safety procedures are rigorous, including face coverings worn at all times.
Give your children the opportunity to learn, grow, and thrive at the Y. Preview classes at ymcapkc.org/youth on February 11 and register February 15-18.
