CHESS
Learning and playing chess facilitates a child’s cognitive development and provides them with opportunities to practice thinking, analyzing, planning, problem-solving, decision-making, observing, concentrating, visualizing future possibilities, and applying lessons from past experiences to present circumstances. Each child is challenged by fun games and lessons. All kids are welcome regardless of ability or experience.

FUTURE FILMMAKERS
The goal of this class is to have a ton of fun making a short film over an 8-week period! The first 2 classes will be pre-production–coming up with a concept, understanding how other films have used techniques to execute similar concepts, writing a script, and soliciting/sourcing
any additional materials needed for costumes/sets. The next 4 classes will be production–filming. The 7th class will be for editing, and the 8th and final class will be a popcorn/movie day, where we will invite other kids in aftercare to watch the film we have made.

YOGA
During Yoga, children go on a yoga adventure using their imaginations and the art of storytelling to help navigate through yoga poses. Our destinations include hiking in the mountains, diving in the Great Barrier Reef, going on a safari in Africa, or sledding at the North Pole. On our journey, we play yoga games, sing yoga songs, and practice breathing techniques. Our goal is to give young children a developmentally appropriate way to explore yoga poses, mindfulness, and social-emotional learning. In all of our JAMaROO Kids classes, children are introduced to different genres of music from around the world and are encouraged to use their imagination, problem-solving skills, creative thinking, and listening skills. Our curriculum changes monthly to keep our students excited, engaged, and challenged!
