ACTIVE KIDS AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAM 
At The Adirondack Club

IS YOUR CHILD READY FOR A FUN-FILLED AFTERNOON?

WHETHER YOUR CHILD LOVES TO STAY ACTIVE, GET CREATIVE, MAKE NEW FRIENDS OR USE THEIR IMAGINATION,

ACTIVE KIDS HAS SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE!

 

Since 2010, Active Kids has helped children make the most of their afternoons. From swimming and active games to arts & crafts, creative projects, imaginative play, and time with friends, Active Kids has something for everyone. Our goal is to create a fun, safe, and engaging environment where every child can discover activities they love while building confidence, friendships, and lifelong memories. 
 

We understand that after a long school day, children need opportunities to move, explore, create, and unwind. Each afternoon, children can choose from a variety of activities, including:

- Swimming
- Sports and active games
- Arts & crafts
- Imaginative and dramatic play
- Group games and challenges
- Homework support
- Free-choice activities with friends

- Daily afternoon snack is provided, including healthy options and their choice of water or juice.

 

Our supportive and caring staff create a welcoming environment where children can develop new skills, build friendships, and have fun.

 

At Active Kids, every child can find activities that match their interests, personality, and energy level before heading home at the end of the day.​

As a working parent of three boys, it was very important for me to find reliable after-school care that was a good fit for their active personalities. We have been attending Active Kids at the Adirondack Club since my oldest was in kindergarten (he is now about to start 7th grade) and it has been a great experience. Our kids enjoy the range of activities offered and thrived in the friendly, engaging environment the Active Kids program offers. The staff is fantastic, always very helpful and interactive with both the kids and parents. It is great to be greeted by name and with a smile when you arrive after a long day. Our boys really enjoy making friends from other schools and often will tell me they were not ready to leave because they were having too much fun! The program's flexibility, hours, and options for both no school days and school vacation weeks were extremely helpful and appreciated as a working mom.

AK FAQ

WHAT IS A TYPICAL DAY LIKE FOR MY ACTIVE KID?

Your Active Kid will arrive from school on our leased buses and be welcomed by our friendly and experienced staff. After a long day in the classroom, children have opportunities to relax, socialize, get active, and choose activities that match their interests.


A typical afternoon may include a swim in our pool, arts & crafts, imaginative play, group games, sports, fitness activities, homework time, or simply spending time with friends. Our schedule is designed to provide a balance of structured activities and supervised free choice, allowing children to explore new interests while enjoying their favorite activities.


Children are offered a daily snack, including healthy options such as fruits and vegetables as well as favorites like pretzels, tortilla chips, and cookies. Water and juice are available during snack time.
Since every child is different, no two afternoons look exactly the same. Whether your child enjoys swimming, creating, competing, socializing, or simply unwinding after school, Active Kids offers a safe, engaging environment where they can feel comfortable, confident, and connected.


All daily activities, including swimming and special programming, are included in the monthly tuition.

HOW IS THE STAFF SELECTED?

.Our Active Kids staff are carefully selected to meet the needs of our growing program and to create a safe, engaging, and supportive environment for every child. Lead staff members have experience working with children and many have educational backgrounds or degrees in education, child development, recreation, or related fields.

Many of our assistant staff members began their journey with us through our summer camps, childcare programs, and after-school program, bringing years of experience and familiarity with our community. We are especially proud that several former Active Kids participants have returned to work in the program as staff members, creating a unique connection between past and present generations of Active Kids.

All staff complete required background checks and training and are committed to helping children learn, grow, build friendships, and have fun every day.

WHAT DAYS CAN I SIGN UP FOR?

Our program is currently accepting 2 days, 3 days, 4 days and 5 days per week applications from one-month to a full school year’s commitment. Space is limited, please inquire about availability. There is a $100 registration fee for the After School program.

HOW DOES THE PROGRAM KEEP PARENTS INFORMED?

Active Kids uses Brightwheel as our primary family communication platform and enrollment system.
Through Brightwheel, families can register for programs, receive important updates, view announcements, access program information, and communicate with staff. It serves as our one-stop resource for staying connected throughout the year.

In addition, the Active Kids Director and Site Coordinator create a monthly newsletter that is emailed to all Active Kids families and posted on the Active Kids bulletin board located in the hallway leading to Childcare.

Parents are also welcome to speak with staff during daily pick-up.
