Do you need help balancing your child’s blended school schedule and work this fall? Our Remote Learning Center in Tribeca is your perfect solution.

Students rotate between blocks of remote learning based on their school schedule, socially distanced physical activity, and a variety of games and brain breaks during downtime. Students are grouped by grade level in pods of 8-10. All students will have access to dedicated Kids in the Game coaches to monitor learning and provide assistance when needed!

The health and safety of our kids, families, and team is our top priority—always. We’ve implemented new policies and procedures including daily health screenings, group cohorting, enhanced cleaning techniques and more to ensure a safe and fun environment. Our team at Kids in the Game recently finished 4 in-person summer camps serving 400 families for 10 weeks with ~100 staff members. We had 0 COVID cases. We’re using our expertise and experience from the summer to ensure the safety of your kids this fall.

This program is open to the public! Families are welcome to come from any school in NYC to attend our Tribeca Remote Learning Center while parents return to work or continue to work from home. The cost of the 5-day program is $100 per day for each student. This program is available Monday through Friday to any student in NYC, grades Pre-K4-8th grade.

One of our favorite traditions is displaying our h One of our favorite traditions is displaying our holiday cards on our wall. It’s been so fun to see pictures of our friends with their kids, their 4-legged pets or a beautiful card with no pictures and a note. The hard part is deciding when to take them down. In an effort to stay connected and to keep the conversation going with the kids, I think this year we will keep them up for a while longer. Connectivity is our theme for 2021 and grateful to see friends and family on our holiday wall this year. Any traditions we should know about for the new year? Please share!
