Get up and Go this summer

Get up and go this summer thanks to the City Parks Foundation. This educational, multi-sport fitness program, Get Up & Go, is designed for children 6 to 10 years old to remain active and have fun in their local parks. Youngsters learn about health, nutrition, and fitness while having a blast with friends. Instructors motivate kids to increase their core skills through running, throwing, and strength training.

Get up and Go runs July 12 through Aug. 19 and is offered two days per week. Get Up and Go is free.

Children may register for Kaiser Park, offered on Tuesdays and Thursdays, from 1 to 4 pm, or Seth Low Playground, offered on Mondays and Wednesdays from 9:30 am to noon.

Get Up and Go at Kaiser Park (Neptune Avenue and Bayview Avenue in Coney Island) at Seth Low Playground (W. 12th Street between Bay Parkway and Avenue P in Bensonhurst, www.cityparksfoundation.org/sports/kids-fitness).

Instituto Cervantes

Children and teenagers learn to understand and express themselves in Spanish, while improving their communication skills through a dynamic immersion program taught by NATIVE TEACHERS that combines CLASSES, ARTISTIC WORKSHOPS and FUN ACTIVITIES! All of our high-qualified teachers are native Spanish speakers who adapt the structure of the class to the needs and levels of each group while conducting the classes entirely in Spanish. We offer both Spanish Summer Camps and Regular Courses for children along the year to foster language learning and multicultural understanding.
