Our YMCA is Family Fantastic!
Our programs provide an opportunity for families to spend quality time together at the YMCA.


Child Watch
Leave your children in experienced hands so they can have fun and play while you work out. Rooms are stimulating and fun! Free for Family Members.

Prime Time for Families (AFC)
Friday nights are always fun at the Southwest YMCA with arts and crafts and special events.

Family Prime Time (Maplewood)
Friday nights are always fun at the Maplewood YMCA with children's obstacle course and pool inflatables.
 

Family Prime Time (Monroe)
Includes use of our Family Gym, complete with a climbing wall, tree house, cargo net and lots of mats, toys and other really "cool" stuff for families to play with. Staff assist parents and facilitate activities throughout the evening. In addition to the gym, we also include the Family Swim! Parents and children are invited to take a dip in the pool, float around together and use up excess energy with loads of pool toys and activities. Special events are sometimes available and include arts and crafts projects, story-time, and other parent-child activities. This program is designed for parents and children together-all youth must be accompanied by their parent/guardian.
Prime Time (Monroe)
Similar to Family Prime Time, this program is available for families and/or youth over the age of 6. Children under 6 may participate but must be accompanied by their parent/guardian. The program includes Family Gym, which is programmed more for the older youngsters (8 - 12 years). Wall climbing, cargo net, rope tunnel, tire swings and other adventure-based activities are available. Parents can take a class or workout while children play together in the gym. Before or after their classes, parents are invited to come and join the fun - climb the wall or test their skills on the tire traverse. Child Watch is available for children under the age of 6.

KidScene (Maplewood)
A supervised environment for children ages 6 - 12. Arts and crafts, computer and board games are available while you enjoy your workout.

Family Nights
Carnival nights, family fitness activities, holiday celebrations and more are held periodically during the year and are designed for the entire family. Volunteers are always welcome, as are your ideas and suggestions for new and innovative activities!! Watch for flyers in your branch for more details.


Family Basketball (Monroe)
