Get The Giggles Out

An easy, happy way to bridge the after-school gap. Kids ages 3–6 land after a full day of sitting, then run, climb, sing, and giggle it all out — before a calm-down routine sends them home settled.

The Fun Part

What Happens in Class

Six things, every class — designed to move big, laugh hard, and then bring it back down to calm.

🤸

Small-group

Capped group sizes so every child gets seen, heard, and cheered for — no one lost in the crowd.

🧗

Obstacle courses

Climb, crawl, jump, and balance through courses that change every single week.

🎵

Music

Songs, rhythm, and freeze dances that turn big movement into a game nobody wants to stop.

🏃

Movement games

Silly races and cooperative challenges that burn off the wiggles from a day of sitting still.

🌋

The Floor is Lava

The classic — safe zones, block bridges, and a whole lot of giggling.

🧘

Calm-down routine

Every class ends with breathing, stretching, and a settle, so kids leave ready for the evening.

Why Parents Book It

The After-School Gap, Solved

The stretch between pickup and dinner is when the wiggles usually win. Kids have been holding it together all day, and they need somewhere to put all of that energy before the evening begins.

Get The Giggles Out is that somewhere. A small-group class where TK and kindergarten kids move big, laugh hard, and then practice coming back to calm — an easy, happy bridge from the school day to home.

Parents tell us it shows up at home

Less bouncing off the walls at dinner. An easier bedtime. And a kid who feels like they actually got to be a kid today.

Built for ages 3–6 — right where the energy lives

01

Straight from school

Arrive as you are — no uniform, no prep, no homework first. Come in comfy clothes and jump right in.

02

Move, play, giggle

Obstacle courses, music, movement games, and The Floor is Lava — the wiggles get used up on purpose.

03

Land calm

The calm-down routine ends every class, so kids come home settled instead of wired for the rest of the evening.
