With fall just around the corner, Milwaukee Recreation has organized an array of low-cost activities to keep children busy and engaged.

Junior Chefs: This class allows youth to mix, measure, and bake their own delicious treats and create main courses and side dishes. Also taught are table settings and proper serving methods.

French Bonjour!: This class offers an introduction to conversational French for students with little or no French language knowledge. Students will learn language skills in a cultural context covering topics such as clothing, food, music, art, leisure activities and more.

Junior Robotics Engineering: This class is a perfect mixture of fun and learning, using LEGO WeDo Robots. Students build a roaring lion out of LEGO bricks and learn how to program and operate it with a laptop computer.

Rock Band: Join the band, learn some advanced songs, and have fun! All types of musicians welcome; bring your musical instrument. Previous band experience required. Class is combined with adult class.

Checkmate Chess Club: Whether you are interested in learning how to play chess or already know how, this class is for you. Players of all skill levels welcome. Don’t get ‘rooked’ by your friends for not playing chess. Be the ‘king’ or ‘queen’ of your block. Chess game supplied. Class combined with adult class.

Youth Football, Next Step: Continue to improve on the basic skills of the game with more passing and catching opportunities. Develop your understanding of plays and in-game scenarios. Position specific and game-like drills will help you grow as a player.

For more information about these activities, click on Milwaukee Recreation Department or look at the Fall Recreation Guide.
