Building Kidz campuses aren’t just preschools or daycare centers, we also have a carefully designed after-school program to help kids learn and socialize outside of school hours.

School-age programs

Building Kidz franchisees have the flexibility to offer a range of services that allow them to best align with the needs of their community. One of the optional services a Building Kidz franchise can provide is an after-school program. These programs are in high demand because, for most parents, the workday doesn’t perfectly correspond to the school day of their kids. Many parents can’t be with their young kids when they get out of school, so they need somewhere their kids can be safe and supervised. If that place is also fun for their kids, it makes things that much easier. And if that place also helps their kids with their academic development, that’s even better!

Building Kidz offers such places for parents. Our campuses help school-aged children with our after- and before-school programs. These innovative programs offer age-appropriate activities for every child. We help children improve their problem-solving skills with science experiments. We teach kids to express themselves through dance, music, and musical theater. Our children advance academically and socially as they progress through targeted activities while building social skills and friendships.

We help school-aged children with academic subjects, teach them to use technology to help them learn, encourage them to have fun and foster their creativity with sculpting exercises, help them with homework, and teach them about robotics.

Academics

Research shows that taking part in high-quality after-school programs helps children improve their academic performance. Our teachers plan curriculum based on students’ interests. We provide school-age children with focus weeks during breaks in the school year. We teach academic subjects with fun and engaging educational activities.

Technology

Our after-school program provides state-of-the-art computers so that students can learn by using different media. We provide educational software that includes academic support and educational games. Our students can research information that interests them and use computers to complete their homework. Our teachers monitor computer use and provide educational support in learning technology.

Sculpting

We teach school-age children using a variety of media. We guide them in the exploration of the three-dimensional form. Our students discover different ways to work with textures by engaging in hands-on sculpture-making activities. We teach students to create simple human and animal forms by working with soft modeling clay. Students can also construct complicated forms and work with materials such as metal wire, wood, and glue.

Homework Club

At Building Kidz, we also have a Homework Club that offers children the opportunity to work on their homework in a quiet and supportive environment. We have qualified teachers to help guide students and answer any questions they have. Each child gets their own desk and our teachers encourage students to work in small groups to ensure adequate attention from our staff.

Robotics

We also offer a dynamic and unique robotics program for school-age children. Our robotics program uses the LEGO robotic kit, which enables students to discover science, technology, engineering, and mathematics in a fun, engaging, and hands-on way.

Robotics offers many benefits for students, such as:

  • Achieving a basic but strong understanding of the functionality of robotics
  • Developing creativity and problem-solving skills while learning important mathematics and science concepts
  • Learning to improvise and create new ways of building and programming existing robots
  • Enhancing their communication, organization, and research skills, preparing them for future success at higher levels of schooling and in the workplace
  • Learning to work cooperatively and to communicate effectively in small groups to achieve a specific goal
  • Gaining confidence in science, technology, and math (STEM) related subjects
