Today’s post is about a great program from a juicy new Tiny Oranges sponsor called Lil’ Kickers, which offers soccer classes for kids in Orange County and many other fun programs I am excited to share with you today.
My kids love everything about soccer – and this mama loves that they are active, running and happy. Recently I had the opportunity to chat with Tim from Lil’ Kickers, who told me all about their fabulous soccer classes for kids and child development program.
And the best part? He wants your kids to try the program for FREE! Simply mention this Tiny Oranges blog…and receive THREE FREE trial classes (valid for one child only).
You’ll find Lil’ Kickers at the Next Level Sports Complex in Garden Grove – a premier multi-sport complex that offers a broad range of athletic programs for all ages.
Tim told me all about the Lil’ Kickers program and their philosophy about working with young kids. Read below and see for yourself!
What makes Lil’ Kickers soccer classes for kids in Orange County unique?
One of the most unique aspects of the Lil’ Kickers soccer program is that we were created by child development professionals and soccer professionals.
It is firmly rooted in child development theories, and every class is designed specifically for where a child is developmentally, cognitively, socially, physically, and mentally.
What do moms love about your program?
We use imagination and creativity to engage with the kids. Soccer fields are transformed to become the bottom of the ocean or the galaxy above. Kids are super active, super engaged, and have a great time.
What kind of “age appropriate activities” could we expect in a class?
In our “Hoppers” class (beginning for three and four-year-olds), kids will learn soccer skills without knowing they are actually developing soccer skills.
We use story and imagination to engage the kids. This helps the children interact and stay engaged.
Our blue soccer balls become laser balls, or battleship cannon balls, or blue pearls that are at the bottom of the ocean…and the kids are in imaginary “scuba gear,” retrieving the blue pearls and bringing them back to the submarine before the octopus (the coach) stops them.
What ages do you teach?
There are classes for kids as young as 18-24 months which are Parent & Me soccer classes all the way up to age 9.. You can visit the website to see the class breakdown by age and along with class descriptions.
Tell us more about what you offer…
Lil’ Kickers is more than just soccer. We have our weekly classes for kids ages 18 months to nine-years-old like I mentioned, but we also have soccer birthday parties that incorporate soccer and a whole lot more (bounce houses, dodge ball, basketball, kickball, flag football, and volleyball to name a few!).
We also offer a “Parents Night Out” on a regular basis where parents drop their kids off for “date night,” leaving their kiddos in the hands of the best babysitters, our Lil’ Kickers coaches. We also have great OC summer soccer camps and winter soccer camps, too!
Want your Lil’ Kicker to try it out?
All you have to do is call us at 714-230-0706 x107 – mention this Tiny Oranges blog – and receive three Lil’ Kickers classes for FREE (valid for one child only). SO excited to try them!
