Things to do in Orlando with kids
171 dated listings for school-age kids in Orlando in the next 60 days — after-school, camps, courses and youth sports, pulled from the town's real event feed and sorted by age, not by who paid to be first.
Kids life in Orlando — the short version
If you're raising kids in Orlando, this is the page that keeps up. Between Oct 7 and Nov 15, Orlando's feed lists 171 dated listings for this age — 45 different programs, covering after-school, camps, courses and youth sports. Most of it runs at Offsite (16) and Windermere Branch (Windermere – Ask at Desk) (16).
Everything here is a real listing from Orlando's own event feed, checked against each program's age range — a program whose ages overlap 5–12 shows up here even if it also fits the age next door. The library branches showing up for this age are Orlando Public Library (Learning Cube – Second Floor) and Orlando Public Library (Red Room – Second Floor).

Good to know
By the numbers for this age in Orlando: 171 dated listings in the next 60 days; 44 run after school on a weekday and 25 land on a weekend; the busiest single venue is Offsite with 16 of them.
On cost: none of these listings carries a free tag in Orlando's feed, so treat prices as check-the-listing — libraries and rec centres often run these at no cost, but the feed doesn't say so and we won't guess.
Keep exploring
Your next stage: kids grow out of this age band fast — the teens page for Orlando picks up where this one leaves off.

Common questions
What's on in Orlando for school-age kids right now?
The feed lists 171 dated listings for this age in the next 60 days, running Oct 7 to Nov 15 — the Coming up section is pulled straight from it.
Are these drop-in, or do I need to register?
It varies by program, and the page only says which is which where a listing's own words say so — the Good to know section names the drop-in and registration listings it found. When it doesn't say, the listing link is the place to check.
What's free for school-age kids in Orlando?
None of the current listings carries a free tag in the feed, so check each listing for its price — we don't mark anything free that the source doesn't.
