Wiggle & Play
Wiggle & Play is our active learning time where children learn through movement and play. During this part of the session, children participate in fun, structured games that help them build early literacy and math skills such as letters, sounds, numbers, counting, shapes, and patterns—all while moving their bodies.
This time also helps children:
-
Build coordination and body awareness
-
Practice listening and following directions
-
Improve focus and self-control
-
Gain confidence in a joyful, low-pressure way
To children, it feels like play. To parents and teachers, it builds important learning foundations.
Fix-It Challenge
The Fix-It Challenge is where children become little problem solvers. In this part of the session, children are given a simple, hands-on challenge—such as helping Bee-Bot get to a letter, building something that doesn’t fall down, or figuring out how to make something work.
Children learn to:
-
Think through a problem
-
Try different solutions
-
Count, sort, and use shapes in real ways
-
Work together and take turns
-
Keep trying even when something doesn’t work the first time
Most importantly, children learn: “I can try. I can fix it. I can figure it out.”
Power-Up Games
Power-Up Games kick off each session by getting kids moving, focused, and ready to learn. These are high-energy, structured games that build coordination, teamwork, focus, and confidence while also reinforcing academic skills like numbers, patterns, directions, and thinking skills.
This time helps students:
-
Release energy in a positive way
-
Build focus and self-regulation
-
Strengthen teamwork and communication
-
Prepare their minds and bodies for problem-solving
STEAM Mission Challenge
The STEAM Mission Challenge is the main event of the session. Students are given a real-world style challenge—such as designing a structure, programming a path, or solving an engineering-style problem—and work individually or in teams to plan, test, and improve their solution.
During this challenge, students:
-
Use critical thinking and creativity
-
Apply math, logic, and design thinking
-
Learn from mistakes and improve their designs
-
Practice collaboration and perseverance
-
Build confidence by solving meaningful problems
This is where kids stop just consuming and start thinking, building, and creating.
