Wondering what to do with the kids this summer? Cleveland Metroparks invites all to join Kids Club, an exclusive program for children, ages 12 and younger, that gets kids out and active in nature.
With over 1,300 members already registered, Cleveland Metroparks Kids Club has quickly become the club to join for kids to discover nature, including campfires, fishing, hiking, crafts, puppets, birding, Zoo programs, and more!
All Kids Club members, ages 12 & under, receive a Passport and throughout the year, Cleveland Metroparks and the Zoo offer special events, programming and other activities for kids to earn stickers for their Passports. If a member gets at least 12 stickers, they can attend an end-of-the-year party!
Children can enjoy programs, activities and events all over the Park District, with a variety of opportunities for children to earn another sticker for their passports. The variety of programs balances activity, education and creativity, and some are for specific age groups, including programs for parents and toddlers and programs specifically for ages 8 and older.
Members can experience great activities throughout the year, including some awesome exclusive programs and events, such as Help Feed a Critter, meet Cleveland Metroparks Zoo's Professor Wylde, a Kids Club Golf Clinic and more. There are great summer events happening all throughout the park district, including the nearest nature center.
In addition to the exclusive programs, all members receive special coupons with their welcome letter. With a paid membership, these coupons include golf coupons for a free bucket of balls, a 9-hole round of golf at a Cleveland Metroparks Golf Course, and other great offers.
The paid membership is only $15 (with $12 for each additional sibling). And, there is still a free membership level.
