Montclair Gets Its Own Kidville

Saturday marked the grand opening of the Montclair branch of Kidville.

The business, as its name implies, is about children: Kidville offers developmental learning classes, birthday parties, summer activities and training camps.

Now open, parents may register their children for programs and take advantage of Kidville’s grand opening promotions. Among the current offerings: week-long Fairy Princess and Super Hero training camps that last for two hours per day and run from Aug. 12 through 30.

Owner Jackie Howell-Marthone says her staff has created a safe and exciting environment for kids ranging in age from newborns to six-year olds to play and make new friends while learning. She describes Kidville as a country club for children, a place "where they can kick back and relax."

To learn more about Kidville's offerings or to register your child for a class, send email to mayor.montclair@mykidville.com. The facility is located at 516 Valley Road in Upper Montclair.
