Kroc Center offering fall activities for toddlers and young children starting Tuesday

QUINCY — The Kroc Center is offering Toddler Time: Mommy and Me in the gymnasium from 9-11 a.m. on Tuesdays from Oct. 4-Dec. 20.

This special drop-in playtime is just for guardians and toddlers (age 5 and under). Participants will enjoy social time while little ones play in the gymnasium. All toddlers must be accompanied by an adult the entire time. Organized activities will be available as well as equipment for open play.

Toddler Time is free to members, $5 per week for non-member adults (16+) and $3 per week for non-member children (five-years-old and under).

“After talking to the parents of children who participate in my programs, I noticed that they all had one thing in common, a desire to see more children’s activities available to the community,” recreational sports specialist Kristy Stegeman said in a press release. “I’m excited to expand my regular fall recreation opportunities by adding Toddler Time as well as a new session of ninja training. I hope by offering these classes, parents will see The Kroc Center is dedicated to providing opportunities to all age groups and is open to suggestions regarding other class offerings.”

Ninja Training will be available for one fall session on Tuesdays from Oct. 25-Nov. 15. Class times vary per age group. This high-octane combination of obstacle training, martial arts, gymnastics and freestyle movement is designed to harness the limitless energy of young children for a total body workout that builds strength, endurance, and character. This class is available to ages 4-5 and 6-7.
