The R Child is your neighborhood's super power STEAM center. Our mission is to help parents uncover their kids’ passion for STEM. We take an innovative approach to education, introducing STEAM at an early age. The center offers a variety of different activities for kids ages 0 to 16 years old including Discovery Play Center, an indoor STEM playground that offers a novel approach to your child’s playtime, the Learning Center which includes a Montessori-based Early Learning Studio for younger students and a Robotics Lab where elementary and middle school students start with building their first robot and advance to preparing for robotics and coding competitions. Within this 5000-square-foot educational facility in the heart of Fort Lee, it's a place for the whole family to enjoy. Here you can learn, celebrate, discover, and find like-minded families.
