SPECIAL ACTIVITIES

Millard Children's Academy offers many fun and recreational activities on-site throughout the year. We believe these opportunities allow the children to participate in some extra-curricular activities with their friends during the week, while their parents are busy, freeing up more time for families to be together in the evening instead of running around from activity to activity.

We have several reputable, child-based community organizations come on-site to offer monthly or longer-term sessions of fun activities. These programs allow the children to learn more about exercising, stretching, and tumbling, and they give them additional chances to play and have fun with their friends. These activities are optional and are an additional cost.

Stretch-N-Grow®

Stretch-n-Grow® is a children's fitness and nutrition education program. Their classes offer age-appropriate workouts, fun and interactive health lessons, non-competitive activities, introductory sports skills, and nutrition and safety topics. Stretch-n-Grow's strength and flexibility practice makes exercise fun and creates opportunities for kids to learn to exercise and learn to love it!

Stretch-n-Grow classes meet once per week. There is a monthly fee for this program, which is added directly to your MCA account. You may sign up or withdraw your child at any time. These classes are designed for children from two through five years old.

Tumble Bus

Tumble Bus is a full-sized school bus that has been transformed into a mobile gym. It has equipment scaled down to meet the physical needs of preschool children. Tumble Bus offers the best motor development and physical fitness program for your child. It gives them the advantage of physical development and builds self-esteem to help give them a confident childhood. In addition to climbing, rolling, hand/eye coordination, and rhythmic exercises, children get a real cardiovascular workout. The Tumble Bus program is fun while it develops concentration, self-discipline, coordination, self-confidence, balance, strength, flexibility, and self-image. Their goal is to encourage each child to achieve their greatest potential by exploring a variety of movements in a safe and positive learning environment.

Tumble Bus offers four sessions per year: three 10-week sessions during the school year and one 8-week session in the summer. Their classes meet once per week. There is a per-session fee for this program, which is added directly to your MCA account in two installments. These classes are designed for children from approximately three through five years old.
