As parents search for new ways to entertain and teach their children through these long “stay at home” days, Meadowbrook Mall is offering a little help with a Virtual Kids Club.  Joining the club is easy.  Just log onto the mall’s Facebook page Monday through Friday, 11 a.m. through noon.

The kids will enjoy short (five- to 15-minute) live video presentations that will offer a variety of educational programming.

The first Virtual Kids Club aired April 20, with a lesson from the “Explore Kindness” program.  Other themes will vary by day:

Tuesdays and Thursdays, join Mr. Science, Jason Lindsey, for a “Hooked on Science” segment.  Along with the on-line experiment, Jason will provide links to one-sheet instructions that parents may download to do the experiment from home.

Wednesdays will feature either a story time or Captain McFinn Yoga.

Friday is reserved for craft time or an art project kids can do from home. These sessions may occasionally offer recipes for families to do together.
