If you haven't seen the KIDS U in Needham, you need to go see it. The Play Quad is worth the class fees alone! It is immaculate and lots of fun. One of the many benefits of taking classes at Kids U is unlimited access to a large indoor jungle gym designed to encourage active play. Your child can use the 2000 square foot, 17-foot tall Play Quad anytime the facility is open!  WBZ did a nice segment on Kids U - read/see it here [& see the playquad in action].
