Parents’ need for flexible enrichment drives new product launch to offer quality content to fit any schedule. ActivityHero now offers on-demand, live online and in-person classes and camps.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

School is back in session, but hybrid and virtual days have many families scrambling for activities to fill unexpected gaps in daily learning. ActivityHero<\/a> had already successfully adapted its business in March as COVID-19 shut down in-person camps to offer live online classes<\/a> for children at home. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now with families seeking more flexible solutions for enrichment activities, ActivityHero is once again expanding the platform to launch On-Demand content for kids. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis summer, over 35,000 children attended an online class or camp through one of ActivityHero\u2019s hundreds of activity partners,\u201d said CEO and Co-Founder Peggy Chang. \u201cBut when school started back, we recognized the need to develop an on-demand platform that offers high-quality content to kids anytime, anywhere.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

ActivityHero On-Demand<\/a> launches November 10th with pre-recorded videos and printable activities for children, ranging in price from free to $15. A wide variety of topics is available for instant access from quality educators, including Stanford Libraries, Little Medical School, Young Rembrandts, and Engineering for Kids. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cStanford Libraries are excited by this opportunity to engage younger students through interactive learning experiences that foster map reading and analysis,\u201d said Andria Olson, Stanford Map Librarian. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cActivityHero On-Demand is a great way for Little Medical School to provide our hands-on classes when children want it and parents need it,\u201d said Little Medical School Founder Dr. Mary Mason. \u201cOur unique curriculum can be delivered in a very engaging way for kids wanting educational entertainment at any time and anywhere.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Organizations and teachers are able to add their content to ActivityHero On-Demand and earn money from purchases. ActivityHero reviews all content to ensure it is appropriate for children. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

ActivityHero recognizes that supporting children\u2019s education and enrichment isn\u2019t a one size fits all solution. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIf your child prefers the interaction and socialization of live classes, our platform offers over 1,500 live online classes in art, music, mindfulness, LEGO\u00ae, academic support, and more. In-person camps, after school activities, and learning pods are also available in select locations when they follow safety protocols,\u201d said Chang. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scholarships are available on ActivityHero for children who demonstrate a financial need for both online and local activities. You can view all classes, camps and on-demand activities at https:\/\/www.activityhero.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
