More about the field games pop-up:
Feeling inspired by the recent Olympic games? Join West Philadelphia’s Kidokinetics as we put our skills to the test through a series of sports-inspired exercises and challenges. Try out new activities (ever heard of cone bowling?) while also learning the basics of sports like football, soccer, and tee-ball.

Since 1996, Kidokinetics has provided kids of all ages with a playful introduction to sports and physical education. Their sports enrichment and physical education programs go to preschools, elementary schools, local parks and community centers.
