Savannah Children’s Museum will help Nickelodeon™ celebrate Worldwide Day of Play by hosting engaging programming for children & their families Sat. Sept. 26 2015.

Every year, Nickelodeon™ goes completely dark for three hours on Worldwide Day of Play, taking programming off the air on all of its channels and shutting down its websites to reinforce one simple message: Get up, get out, and go play! Over the years, these efforts have resulted in thousands of events and millions of kids being active and pursuing healthy lifestyles.

On Sept. 26, Savannah Children’s Museum will also welcome Whole Foods Market of Savannah from 10:30AM-1:30PM. Guests of all ages will learn about the wonders of organic herbs, taste some wonderful herb pairings with fruits and vegetables, and take home organic herb seeds to plant in their own garden.

More than 75 children’s museums throughout the United States are hosting local Worldwide Day of Play (WWDoP) celebrations to get kids excited about healthy, active play. Through creative, play-based learning experiences, Savannah Children’s Museum educates children and their caregivers about the importance of play for children’s healthy development.

Similar to the way a triathlon tests an athlete’s physical fitness through three athletic challenges, the TriMathlon tests a mathlete’s mental fitness through three fun-filled math challenges:

The Counting Game
Tests students’ ability to count from any number, to any number, by any number.
Magic Squares Challenge
Students are awarded points for developing their own math problems.
Mental Math Workout
Tests students’ number sense by asking them to solve problems without pencil and paper.
Questions become increasingly more difficult as the event progresses.

Participants receive a fun goody bag and a certificate of participation and earn money for local schools. The top three scorers in each grade level at each center will receive additional medals and prizes.

For more information, view the TriMathlon FAQs and the Official TriMathlon Rules.

Supporting Local Schools

All TriMathlon participants raise money for local schools just by attending the event. Local centers will donate money earned by their students to the school of their choice.

Today we’re introducing you to James (pictured here) –  the Moms In Training Honored Hero this season.

James is 4 years old and was diagnosed with T-Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia in August of 2013. James has gone through quite a bit in his short life. He’s endured chemo, radiation, bone marrow biopsies, transfusions and many more procedures.

Expected to be done with treatment in December of 2016, James is a happy boy who loves video games, super heroes, trucks…all things little boy. He has good days and some not so good days as a side effect from his treatment.

With all that he has been through, his family says they are so very thankful that most days he is just a wild little boy.

Moms In Training is a way to help cancer patients like James.

Moms in Training includes weekly Saturday morning training sessions (8-9 am at Daffin Park).

Savannah Children’s Museum will continue to host Sensory Soft Sunday as a unique offering for families with children who have special needs. Savannah Children’s Museum will open from 9-11am on Sept. 20, Oct. 18, Nov. 15 and Dec. 13 to provide these families an opportunity to make connections while enjoying SCM’s many exhibits in a sensory friendly way.

Through discussions with the special needs community, Savannah Children’s Museum discovered that there are few offerings of this kind in the region. Museum staff feel it is especially important to provide all children, regardless of age or ability, an opportunity to experience all that Savannah Children’s Museum has to offer.

The goal of Sensory Soft Sunday: provide an exclusive time period for the families of children with special needs in order to reduce anxiety and overstimulation that can occur when the museum is open to the general public. The trains at Georgia State Railroad Museum, our adjacent facility, will not operate during this exclusive time period, to eliminate the sound of whistles.

To promote a calm atmosphere, the number of attendees is limited. The staffing, however, is not reduced so families may have increased staff interaction as desired or needed. A designated ‘quiet zone’ is located in the orange caboose at Savannah Children’s Museum.

Pre-registration for Sensory Soft Sunday is required and payment is due upon arrival. To register, email Liz Stratford at Lstratford@chsgeorgia.org.

Cost: $7.50 per person over 18 months, free for Coastal Heritage Society Members
Time: 9am-11am on the following Sundays: Sept. 20, Oct. 18, Nov. 15, Dec. 13
Location: Savannah Children’s Museum 655 Louisville Rd. Savannah, GA 31401
