TREEBATH GETS KIDS PLAYING OUTSIDE
Manhattan’s culture-rich playground is fantastic for shaping young minds. But science suggests that outside play is equally important for kids. Global studies advocate that spending time in nature — RAIN OR SHINE — boosts immune systems, cognitive and motor skill development and focus, which is beneficial for children with difficulty concentrating or ADHD. This fall, try Treebath’s Scandinavian-based outdoor after school program. 12-week sessions begin September 9 in the Battery, Central Park and other locations. Maximum of 18 kids per class with 1:6 teacher to child ratio. Register by August 31 and get $50 off! Code: Greenfall19.
