What Families Say
"This program is awesome, and my daughter loved it. It's interactive, which is great; the kids had fun talking to the teachers and the other kids. The teachers are amazing and so knowledgeable. They have a great way of teaching mindfulness in a fun way that kids can understand. I recommend KidShape 100%."
Shani T, mom of an 8 year old girl
"I have two nine-year-old energetic boys. One has little control over his eating, especially during the pandemic; the other has little control over decision making. They really enjoyed Dr Beth and found her funny. I noticed that over the last few days, Leo has employed some of the strategies and has eaten slower and less, and his brother has made better choices. One of the best things you can give a kid is good eating habits so check out the program."
Lori M, mom of 8 year old and 12 year old boys
"My sons had a fun experience talking about being mindful in life as well as food choices. They also enjoyed dancing around the living room with cans of tomato sauce in their hands being silly while being active too. The teachers do a great job with this program and we look forward to the next session!"
Mark R, dad of 9 year old and 12 year old boys
