School’s out for the day, but what should you do with the kids? Time to come up with some fun, creative ways to keep the kids entertained until dinnertime. Of course, homework is waiting, but is it better to have kids start on it as soon as they get home, or should they blow off a little steam before settling in? Giggles N’ Hugs, Inc. (OTCQB: GIGL) has been voted the #1 spot for indoor after-school activities in the Los Angeles area.
It’s no secret that after-school activities do wonders for a child’s development. They are linked to improved social skills, grades, overall coordination, sense-of-self and relationships with adults other than mom and dad. Los Angeles-based Giggles N’ Hugs is a first-of-its-kind, award-winning family restaurant company that combines organic gourmet food with play elements for children, including 2500-square-foot play spaces in the middle of its restaurants.
After-school programs and activities also give kids a chance to be themselves, free of the structure they face at school. “Since kids spend their day primarily sitting down and following a schedule at school, when they get home it is important for them to have time to be creative, get moving and do something they enjoy,” says Kristin Fitch, CEO and co-founder of ZiggityZoom.
The vast majority of young people believe that kids are better off when their plates are full and they don’t have too much time to just hang out. What’s more, youngsters who participate in out-of-school activities typically perform better in school, as well as outside of the classroom. At the Giggles N’ Hugs play spaces, children can expect tons of activities and games while having fun on a giant pirate ship, sliding down slides, and diving into a ball pit. There are even monkey bars, a hopscotch course, and jungle gyms to effectively tire out kids before bedtime.
