About the Program

Category: Children and Youth

Year: 2023

Mini Mondays is a new program for the Charlotte County Recreation Division started in September 2022. Due to the program’s outstanding success, we have continued the program again for the Spring 2023. Mini Mondays is a character trait-based family program designed for 0-4-year-old children to interact with friends, learn new skills, and develop physically. At the core of this program is the introduction of character-trait building blocks. Coach Miguel Dotres introduces the children to a different character trait every week. Examples include respect, joy and gratitude to name a few. The participants engage in physical activity playing soccer, noodle hockey, basketball and many other games. The character traits are constantly in the background during the sessions reminding the children the importance of sharing, working together, showing joy and having a great time.
