Kids in the Kitchen

Kids in the Kitchen is Pitter Painter’s foray into the culinary arts.  We’re taking our inspiring and nurturing atmosphere from the art studio to the kitchen. To make sure your little chefs have fun creating delicious dishes, we developed a cooking program in consultation with Montessori-trained educators and chefs from the Culinary Institute of America.

Kinder Kicks / Asia Pacific Soccer Schools

Experienced, professional & trusted  - we coach over 1,000 under-5 Kinder Kicks students every week. The Kinder Kicks ‘Curriculum’ and ‘Learning Outcomes’ have been created by our professional coaches, who have many years’ experience in working with very young students.

Kinder Kicks is a soccer play program for children from walking to 5 years old. Our professional coaches will teach a wide variety of exciting games where students enjoy themselves while learning the basics about soccer. Each activity is designed to improve a young child's motor skills and social skills while having fun.

Asis Pacific Socceer School classes at the YWCA are for 5, 6 and 7 year old children. These are a progression from Kinder Kicks classes, where the emphasis is on building soccer skills such as dribbling, passing and shooting. These classes use specially weighted soccer balls so students can learn better control of the ball and really learn to play the beautiful game! If a child is 5yo and has not played much sport before it might be more beneficial to complete a Kinder Kicks 4-5yo course first, before moving to APSS sessions.

Kinder Bounce is a basketball-based fun programme for young children up to 6 years old. Many different games are used to improve hand-eye coordination and the children learn how to catch, throw and dribble the ball. It's a fun way to learn the basics of basketball while learning to take instructions and interacting with other children of the same age.

Asia Pacific Basketball is a program aimed at 5 to 12 year olds, a continuation on from our Kinder Bounce program. Asia Pacific Basketball provides an in-depth knowledge of the fundamentals of basketball for beginners to intermediate players. Our program is developed by ex-professional players and is designed to build well rounded players in all aspects of the game.

Kinder Games is a multi-sport programme for small children up to 6 years old which uses all kinds of equipment and activities to get kids active and using lots of different motor skills. Students will be throwing, catching, balancing, crawling, jumping, dodging and more! It will also teach kids valuable social skills like sharing, taking turns and listening to Coach.
