In the rush of back-to-school, everybody is excited about the new year. Kids do their homework promptly, parents sign up for PTA, and teachers have an A+ plan for keeping families engaged in the year’s lessons. But as the first day of school rush fades, it gets harder to stay on track. Want to keep kids excited about school all year? Monkey Joe is here to help.
Monkey Around During PTA Meetings
What’s the biggest problem preventing parents from attending PTA events? Childcare. Finding a babysitter is troublesome and expensive. Increase attendance at PTO meetings by booking an event at Monkey Joe’s! The kids will have a ball bouncing around the playground under the watchful eye of a few parent volunteers. Parents and teachers can focus on the educational agenda in one of our a private party rooms. Many Monkey Joe’s locations even offer fundraising opportunities for local schools, so you can plan your next PTA fundraiser while you're here..
Reward Students for Reading
Rewards programs are a great way to encourage kids to read. Give Frequent Jumper Cards to students who meet their monthly reading goals. If the whole class meets their goal for the semester, reward them with a field trip at Monkey Joe’s.
Bounce into STEM Lessons
Want to teach young kids about gravity, force, and the science of motion? Bounce around the Jungle to show them a fun, interactive demonstration of the principles they learn about in science class. You can also teach them the benefits of physical fitness, how food turns into energy, and why physical activity is good for their brains.
Need a teacher’s assistant? Look no further than Monkey Joe! His Jungle is the perfect place to let kids learn, play, and stay active during the school year.
