Class Focuses Skills Classes for Kids in Glen Allen

This is our most popular class offering fun, fitness-based play. Children will play on obstacle courses, safe gym equipment, slides, ramps, vaults and more! We organize classes by age group so that each child is participating in age-appropriate activities. The class instructors will help hone larger muscle groups and fine and gross motor skills during these classes as your child learns the importance of physical activity.

Creative learning is fundamental in stimulating the minds of children. Studies have shown that art education improves problem-solving, enhances academic performance, and encourages healthy socialization. Your kids will practice their creativity in a healthy and safe environment. The Romp n' Roll West End art classes cover everything from art history to trying new textures and using their senses. And, as an added treat, your child will go home with an adorable unique keepsake to put on the shelf or fridge.

Singing, dancing, clapping — what fun! Music has been shown to improve language skills and creative thinking, making it important for cognitive development. Our entertaining music class introduces children to new instruments and fun, silly music. Each class is developmentally appropriate for a child's age so that every kid gets what they need most. These classes are a family favorite!

As an adult, you are used to doing things like zipping up jackets, using utensils, and turning a doorknob. Children learn these skills from a young age by practicing similar movements through play. The Romp n' Roll West End instructors will help children play and move their arms, hands, and fingers to strengthen those muscles and brains with our motor skills class. Each age group plays different games to grow and strengthen the appropriate fine and gross motor skills.

Children need healthy movement in their lives to develop and mature. We focus on getting kids to move their bodies in new and fun ways in our movement classes. The delightful class instructors in Glen Allen lead the kids through exciting age-appropriate games and activities. These movement classes will keep your kids active and enjoying themselves as they move and stretch their tiny muscles and joints. Plus, everyone will go home feeling well exercised and ready for whatever the day brings them!

Solving a problem (big or small) is an accomplishment for anyone, especially children, as they are just beginning to learn! As children grow, they develop skills to problem solve and work through new situations, but doing this can take time and is frustrating. This skills class for kids teaches children how to get through tricky situations in playtime like:

• A puzzle piece not fitting into a spot
• Having to go under an obstacle instead of over
• Finding a new toy when the one they wanted is unavailable

The sensory exploration classes are all about trying new things! Kids get the chance to get a little messy as they learn about new sounds, smells, sights, and textures. These classes help children explore their senses with fun, age-appropriate activities, and games. The safe and clean environment at Romp n' Roll West End allows kids to try things as they socialize and learn! No more worries about making a big mess at home; try the sensory exploration class for a fun, controlled, messy activity!

Here at Romp n' Roll West End, we understand that playing pretend games with your child, while valuable, can have its limitations. As parents, your creativity only goes so far, that’s why we have a class focused solely on the skill of imagination! We can transform our room into an enchanted kingdom for little princesses, princes, knights, and dragons. Or we can set pirates loose and go on a magical treasure hunt! Our imaginative class leaders encourage your children to express themselves through pretending, movement and play!

Teaching children independence is critical for developmental, but it can also be tricky! With our special independence class in Glen Allen, we help children gain confidence and learn how to do things by themselves. When children try something new or play a game on their own, they gain a stronger sense of identity. These classes also equip them with skills for growing and gaining more confidence and independence!

If you have only one child and want them to make friends or have a group of kids wanting to get together to play, the socialization classes are perfect! These classes help children meet and interact with kids their age. When children socialize with kids of similar ages, they learn from each other and gain essential socialization skills that help them in many areas of life.
