Stretch-n-Grow Fitness - Recent studies show that our society, through the comforts of technology and fast food, has enabled childhood obesity to reach epidemic proportions. Kids R Kids knows how important physical activity is to any child’s development, and that is why our center includes a bi-monthly fitness class. We stress the importance of fair play, team cooperation, and physical well-being as well as refining hand-eye cordination, balance, and agility.

They teach to the whole child using the Total Physical Response method. The curriculum includes lessons on: Greetings and Responses, Colors, Numbers, Animals, Food, Body Parts and Weather.
Bookmobile - The Bookmobile is a traveling library, sponsored by the Irving Public Library. It comes every 2nd and 4th Thursday of the month. This experience allows children a chance to get excited about books and reading by allowing them to check out books that can be taken home and shared with mom and dad.
