FitLit Kids is excited to kick off 2024 at River Trail Elementary!
 
Created by local author Derick Wilder, Reading Giraffe is the place where where books run wild! By making stories interactive, fun, & ACTIVE adventures, our goal is to create lifelong readers. With fun new titles each session, our curriculum utilizes  “The Whole Book Approach” from The Eric Carle Museum to immerse children in picture books, turning tales into exciting adventures in learning!

Playball has been teaching kids around the world for over 35 years, with a mission of improving children's lives through our sports programs! Each session contains a fresh set of sporty games and activities that introduce students to 7 sports--football, soccer, baseball, basketball, kickball, tennis, and volleyball. Our creative, low-pressure environment encourages boys and girls of all athletic abilities to join in the fun!
