Stepping Stones Children’s Museum Offers Fun Near Norwalk Apartments

Posted On: Monday, January 23rd, 2012
Stepping Stones is great for kids

The Stepping Stones Museum for Children in Norwalk has great activities for kids.

As a parent in one of our Norwalk apartments, getting motivated to go out into the cold can be hard; especially if you live in Morningside Gardens. After all, you have just about everything you need here – a fully equipped kitchen, a well-maintained building in a convenient location and plenty of parking.

On the other hand, if the kids are spending too much time in front of the T.V. or in front of a computer, then it’s time to get them out and moving. A great place to take them to is the Stepping Stones Museum for Children. This winter there’s a new exhibit guaranteed to get even your cutest little couch-potatoes interested called “Run! Jump! Fly! Adventure Action.” It motivates children to get moving by making physical activity fun across four adventure scenes and an “action star training center” which provides imaginative settings where children can try out surfing, kung fu, yoga, climbing and more. The exhibit invites visitors to put their balance, strength, endurance and coordination to the test through playful, non-competitive physical challenges. (more…)

Pet Lovers Flock to our Norwalk Apartments

Posted On: Thursday, January 12th, 2012
It only takes a little effort to keep pets and plants in harmony

There's always a place for pets at Morningside Gardens

While many rental communities have adopted a no-pets policy, residents of our Morningside Gardens Norwalk apartments are fortunate to live in a pet friendly community where cats, birds, fish (and even the occasional turtle!) are welcome. We understand that many residents consider their pets as part of their family and naturally want to bring them along when they move in.

With the colder weather and shortened days, we will all be spending more time together indoors. If you have houseplants, and a cat, then you might want to take a few precautions to be sure both the plants and your kitty stay safe. Remember that cats naturally like a bit of greenery like grass to chew on. You may wish to grow some lemon grass or catnip for them as an alternative. Plants do provide them with needed nutrients, and the absence of those nutrients may be causing their grazing. (more…)

Hamden Rental Apartments are in one of the 100 Best Communities for Young People

2011 Winning Community for Young People

Hamden is a Winner in the 100 Best Communities for Young People contest

Residents of our Hamden rental apartments are proud that their town received recognition from America’s Promise Alliance as one of 2011’s 100 best communities for young people in the nation. This award was granted because all of Hamden’s sectors come together to support children, from schools, local businesses, town agencies and non-profits.

The focus for all this support is the Hamden Partnership for Young Children, where community members partner to discuss and implement programs that improve the services and resources for local youth.

There are many additional programs which supplement the Partnership all around the community that helped Hamden gain recognition. The Kinder-Prep initiative provides resources to families with young students to achieve success in the instrumental early years of schooling. The superintendent’s Student Advisory Committee is a student-run group that meets directly with the superintendent to give students a direct voice to authority and help shape local educational policy. The “Putting on Airs” program provides asthma supplies and relief to students and their families. SAILS at Hamden Middle School and RAISES at Hamden High School identify top rung students and challenge them with higher-level coursework.
