Fun4gatorkids.com is the ultimate resource for finding stuff to do with kids in the Gainesville, FL area. They currently have over 1000 listings and are adding more each week!

Gainesville has SO much to offer for young children, but much of it is not advertised, and many activities and businesses do not even have a website, so kids and their caregivers often find out about them through word-of-mouth or just happen to discover things on their own.

www.Fun4GatorKids.com had 3 goals when developing this website:  

1.  To create a FREE online resource for parents, teachers and care-givers to quickly find activities, programs, businesses, and places to visit with kids in the Gainesville area.

2.  To promote locally owned businesses and programs offering products and services appealing to kids. The website does this in two ways:

—All fun4gatorkids.com listings are FREE! And

—Advertising rates are priced below market value in order to allow small businesses the opportunity to advertise

3. To give back to the community by donating a portion of the proceeds from advertising to local charities benefiting children in the Alachua County area.

Why our Parents Love ACA:

Click Here to Read what some of our parents have to say about ACA.
“When she is at ACA, it feels like Alice is at home at her second address. All the teachers at ACA are loving, caring, and comforting our children meticulously which makes ACA a big strong and unique family. When either I or my husband drops Alice to ACA, who is 16 months old now, she is usually in tears when it is the time to get separated from us, her mommy or daddy. At the instant we arrive to ACA and Alice starts crying, one of the teachers, either Ms. Gail, Katrina or Claret take her from our arms and let us go back to work. Regardless of the time we drop her in, these teachers always create time to get her filled in. They not only make us save some time but also comfort our baby instantly. These extremely dedicated teachers make our children happy and keep them healthy and safe and make our days pass by so much easier with a peace of mind. At the end of the day when we come back to pick her up she welcomes us with a big smile on her face and a warm hug with her tiny arms, yet runs back to her play area or one of her teachers, instead of showing us an interest to get back home.

At ACA Alice likes being socialized with all the other children and the teachers. She loves when Ms. Claret sings her Spanish songs, when Katrina teaches her sign language, when getting introduced to English by Ms. Gail and all the other teachers. She loves it when teachers take her outside to the playground when they introduce new games, plays, songs to her. She loves learning table manners from the teachers and sharing the environment with the other children. Whenever I have time to look after her at home, I still prefer to take her to ACA, since she is learning so much at ACA in addition to having lots of fun.

The cheerful and helpful attitude of administration, Ms. Pat and Ms. Heather makes the transition of a baby from home to daycare possible. With their help parents feel more comfortable in leaving their baby in the hands of a trustworthy second address. We feel very happy with the decision of bringing Alice to ACA due to the atmosphere which is consisted of love, care, safety, and dedication.”
