Summer may be over but those Miami temperatures are still hotter than your irritability when the little ones start telling you they’re bored. But a new concept out of Miami is about to change all that for aggravated parents. Meet “State of Kid” with two, soon to be three, locations in the Miami area where celebs such as Joe Jonas, Sophie Turner, Karolina Kurková, Karlie Kloss, Claire Holt, and more have been seen taking their kids to an array of interactive classes. Kids play, parents shop!
Offering an incredible roster of educational programming for kids up to 8 years old, these 45-minute classes ensure parents can get in a breath of fresh air. With drop-in availability and a jam-packed schedule, State of Kid ensures a good time for parents and kiddos alike.
“We created State of Kid to ultimately make parenting easier,” says Alana Oxfeld, Co-Founder. “Our classes, combined with our highly curated selection of retail, provides a one-stop solution for families.” Oxfeld along with co-founder Cheryl Gonzalez started State of Kid when they both arrived in Miami with young kids — but nowhere to take them.
Now that’s all changed. Get the artistic juices flowing with offerings such as Art Box Parent and Me, Funky Beats Dance, and Miss Nancy’s Petit Chefs class. Get out those jitters and get fun and messy OUT of the house. Eeny Meeny Miny Moe down the class list with the certainty that every class is led by die-hard kid fanatics with extensive experience in their field. Dive into the school year on the right foot with a little help from the Prep for Preschool class or STEM adventures. Whichever way your kid wants to participate there’s something for every liking. Discover a guilt-free way to develop a new interest or further explore a subject your kid has been non stop blabbing about.
Parents can also get in on the fun with certain Mommy and Me classes, introducing them to a world of inspiration to take home beyond the classroom. On second thought, maybe it is time for mommy to get a second to herself… Not only do they provide the opportunity for parents to catch a break they also provide a unique shopping experience carefully curated with exceptional bespoke brands. Parents get to shop in peace, come across the latest and greatest styles and exit State of Kid with their smiling giggling kiddos who’ll be much easier to put to bed later… a win-win situation for all.
With a stunning catalog and delicately organized selection, parents will find pieces rarely found elsewhere from names such as Veja, Rylee + Cru, Louise Misha, Munsterkids, Huxbaby, and beyond. The brands are carefully selected by the chicest moms who find their musings from all over the world, bringing together styles from Australian, European, and American brands. Find the best reads, kids decor and precious trinkets all within your fingertips. Plus, you never know who you might run into.
