Ultimately, "just playing" is how your children learn to be resilient, confident, and successful friends.Please sign up for the mailing list for direct information about all upcoming programs.

Ultimately, "just playing" is how your children learn to be resilient, confident, and successful friends.Please sign up for the mailing list for direct information about all upcoming programs.

5:00 PM - 8:00 PM    Grow Together Play Club Grades: 4-8 - Play Club Mailing List
At the Grow Together Play Club, unstructured time proves to be a powerful engine for development. When kids play freely, they're building essential life skills. Mixed-age environments naturally encourage social growth, teaching kids cooperation, empathy, and leadership as older children mentor younger ones. Self-directed activities sharpen problem-solving and critical thinking while boosting creativity and imagination. Crucially, it develops the independence to make decisions and learn emotional regulation in a low-stress setting. Ultimately, "just playing" is how your children learn to be resilient, confident, and successful friends.Please sign up for the mailing list for direct information about all upcoming programs.

Adventures are adapted for short attention spans and maximum sensory fun.Step Up: 3'and 4'sBuilding Independence and Confidence!Children engage more independently in slightly more complex adventures. Storylines encourage basic dribbling ("navigating a path"), stopping the ball ("avoiding obstacles"), and listening to multi-step instructions within the narrative. Emphasis on cooperation and understanding roles within the story.Next Step: 5'sPreparing for the Next Level of Soccer!Adventures are more dynamic through the storyline. Challenges require more advanced skills and strategic thinking increases within the narrative framework, preparing children for more structured play while reinforcing developmental goals through our imaginative scenarios. Games are more realistic.Registration includes shorts, shirts, and socks.Program will take place at Southbury Parks and Recreation561 Main St SouthSouthbury CT 06488For more information visit our website https://www.astepaheadsoccer.com Questions?
