Kids Way partner's with the Lake Stevens Athletic Club to provide indoor PE/Gym every week. 

Kids Way Kids participate in music, dancing, and gym games. Indoor PE/Gym fosters large motor development and group activity skills. Kids Way reserves the "Zumba/Yoga" room. While Kids Way Kids are at the gym, that room is closed to the public. 

Kids Way receives new books each month from the Lake Stevens Library. In addition, we are invited to join their classes and activities, and a Librarian is our in-house circle time guest every other month. Kids Way's involvement with the Lake Stevens Library is one more way that we create a curriculum that fosters the Home, School, Community philosophy.
