Current Activities
• For the month of February Kid Power had 41 children in attendance. The kids had a lot of fun. All of them got to make their own Valentines Day bag for all their goodies and made Valentines Day cards crafts for each other. Staff also organized a little Valentines Day party for them. • We have tried to make Fun Fridays fun and creative. One of our staff is currently expecting and we incorporated the kids in a small gender reveal activity in which they had so much fun. It’s a boy! AGENDA
ITEM
11 • The Kid Power team continues to help the children with homework and keeps them busy with arts and crafts and Fun Friday activities. The older kids made puffy paint and did some amazing paintings.
Additionally, we incorporated some physical activity when a staff member brought in the Wii and we engaged the kiddos in a dance off.
