Exposing kids to new sport/hobby/skill can help to stimulate their brain and learning. Not only that, it can also drain their excess energies (life-saver!). Other than the usual popular non-academic classes that most kids attend, why not allow your child to try out some of the less common but equally fun activities? Here are some of our suggestions:
1) Mini-golf
A pre-school Golf Academy, its curriculum is built on age-appropriate childhood development techniques, golf skills, and athletic development to develop the skills and enthusiasm necessary to become a lifelong golfer. Classes are conducted for 2 year olds and above, in small groups of maximum 6 to 1 student to teacher ratio.
