There are many benefits to bringing kids to work where they can shadow their parents and learn more about what the adults are doing for 40 hours a week. It is o en a great opportunity for children to see their mom or dad in a different mode than just “parent” mode. Addionally, it helps children begin to learn about the workplace and about work ethics. Of course most importantly, it is a good chance for parents and children to spend more me together in a different se ng. Leland Management hosts Kids’ Day once a year right before school begins. Children from kindergarten through high school are welcome to come into the office and spend some me shadowing mom or dad. A er some me doing this, they get to have some more fun! Once kids are finished observing their parents work, the children and parents are invited to an extended luncheon to have some fun together. This year the team headed to Hukoo’s where families par cipated in laser tag, bounce houses, bumper cars, and arcade games. This was a great opportunity for all of the kids to interact with one another and have fun with their families at the same me. Upon returning to the office, Leland Management presented each child with needed school supplies for the upcoming year. Many of the kids have las ng memories of this special day of learning and having a good me with their parents and look forward to returning year a er year. We sure love to see their smiles every Kids’ Day! 2011 - 2016 Orlando Business Journal Best Places to Work _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ We Want to Hear from You!
