🌈 Get Your Kids Moving with Color Tag!

Looking for a fun way to get your little ones moving at home? Try Color Tag!

Call out a body part and a color, then have your child find that color and place the body part on it! For example: “elbow on yellow!” 💪🟡

Want to get even more movement involved? Have your child walk, run, jump, hop, or skip to each color. The possibilities are endless.

Play indoors or outdoors, get creative, and most importantly—have fun while you move!

📚🎒 Back to School, Back to Routines! ✨

The backpacks are packed, alarms are set, and school routines are back in full swing! As families settle into a new school-year rhythm, don’t forget to make time for play, exploration, and discovery. 💙

At Neighborhood North, kids can keep learning beyond the classroom through hands-on exhibits, imaginative play, creativity, and problem-solving. A visit to the children’s museum is a great way to provide supplemental learning while giving kids the freedom to explore at their own pace.

We offer 5 days of after-school programming each week for children in Kindergarten through middle school! Our programs provides a safe, fun, and engaging environment where children can learn, grow, build friendships, and enjoy their time after school. Whether they’re experimenting, creating, building, pretending, or asking “why?”, every visit is an opportunity to grow their curiosity and confidence. 🔬🎨🧩

So, as you find your new school-year routine, make Neighborhood North part of it! Come play, explore, and learn with us. 🌟

Come play, explore, laugh, and learn with us! Because you’re never too old to play! 🙌💫
