Join in the fun with a lineup of online activities and adventures on Monday, Feb. 1. Programs include:
- Be My Valentine, for ages five to 10. DIY Valentine's Day crafts that even Cupid would love to create! Your kids will make handmade keepsakes – from Valentine's Day-inspired animals to flowering heart trees – to gift to those they love most.
- Brain Game Challenge, for ages seven to 12. Keep your kids’ minds sharp by solving riddles, brain teasers and quizzes in this brain game challenge.
- Hunt the Hunt, for ages 10 and up. As Valentine's Day approaches, celebrate the day with someone special. Have fun with friends creating heart-to-heart crafts, singing telegrams, playing heart Bingo and more love-themed activities.
- Karate for Beginners, for ages seven to 12. Get up and moving by learning traditional karate-do, kobudo and self-defence. Receive an overview of the Vaughan Sports Karate program and basic self-defence techniques.
- LEGO Challenge, for ages six to eight. This is speed LEGO! Design and build LEGO models in timed challenges inspired by imagination and creativity. Your kids can share their LEGO models with the class and vote for their favourite creations. The winning LEGO model will be posted for all to admire on the @recvaughan Instagram.
- Natural Wonders: Backyard Builders, for ages five to 10. Birdwatchers: build and decorate a birdhouse using “beautiful junk” (household items) and create an edible bird feeder that will have birds flocking to your backyard. Bird watching is a calming way to connect with nature and it can be done anywhere, including from the comfort of home.
- Recreational Ballet, for ages four to seven. It’s the first step to becoming a ballerina. Learn basic ballet poses and steps supporting flexibility, strength and balance while developing an appreciation for music and dance.
- Sports Conditioning, for ages eight to 12. Get ready to work up a sweat! Your kids will follow the fitness instructor in a combination of sport and body-weight exercises to increase speed, agility, power and strength. No sports equipment needed – everyday household items will be used.
