Remember your childhood? You knew how to have fun; you used to go out and play with your friends all day. At Kids In Motion, we provide a supervised environment that nevertheless evokes those same feelings of fun; feelings you want your own kids to experience. The children who attend our program enjoy the flexibility we offer; we encourage group activities while allowing the kids to pursue their individual interests.
We know that structure is necessary for safety and control, and we allow the children to help create that structure. We have found that, with our guidance, the kids' participation in shaping the program gives them a sense of ownership and a spirit of responsibility that help keep the program a safe, flexible, and nurturing place to be.

We will go swimming at Strawberry Canyon every Tuesday and Thursday. We will leave Kids In Motion at 12:45 PM and walk 1.5 miles to the pool. Everyone is out of the pool and dressed for snack at 3:30 PM and we head back to Kids In Motion at 3:45 PM, arriving around 4:30 PM. The entrance fee for the pool is $3 (cash is preferred).

I SO wish I had known about this place when my older daughter was younger! Although Kids In Motion is an afterschool program during the school year, it also has a fantastic summer program. The location is at John Muir Elementary School and the Director, Troy Thompson, has been running the program for 20 years now and in fact one of his new teachers/caregivers, Tracy, was once in the program herself.
Today my daughter learned how to ride a bicycle, climbed a tree, baked brownies. Thursdays they go swimming. They have weekly rates as well as daily drop in rate. But most importantly I know
