obstacles, and the giant crayon balance beam. When they’ve had enough
gymnastics they can move over to the giant Play Room filled with soft foam
blocks, bean bag chairs, toys, and the play hut tunnel system. As if that
weren’t enough they can express themselves through art and music in the 3rd
room known as the Arts and Crafts Room. Let your child color all over the
chalk board painted wall or rearrange the alphabet on the fully magnetic
wall. Every Monday and Friday there is a new art project that will be led by
