Kick It Up! NEW Permanent Exhibit Designed as an indoor soccer stadium, Kick It Up! Brought to you by UnitedHealthcare is a unique exhibit that offers hands-on programs to get children’s arms and legs moving and hearts pumping. When children are not engaging in a friendly game of soccer, the field transforms into an interactive, electronic games arena where they can ride bikes; compete in an “i-Dance off”; test their balancing skills; and play challenging games against the electronic T-Wall. Children will also be introduced to traditional playground games such as hopscotch, jump rope and Hula Hoop, all of which provide physical activity with little or no materials.
