Borrow An Active Fun Kit

Physical ActivityWhat is it?

It’s a tub or wheeled bag full of fun and easy-to-use equipment like bean bags, hula hoops, pylons, parachutes, rubber chickens, balls and giant games to get kids active.

What can they be used for?

The kits are great for any type of family or community fun where there is room for kids to safely move about such as picnics, birthday parties, neighbourhood BBQs, and community events.

How do I borrow one?

Several organizations within Simcoe County loan the kits out at no cost to individuals and groups within their community.  It’s simple, choose a location closest to you and call in advance to reserve.
