Hello Everyone,
Today’s suggested activity is PE with Joe! This is a fun way to encourage your children to become physically active, developing their gross motor skills, whilst burning some energy from the comfort of your home. No equipment is needed and the service is completely free. Joe is dressed up as Scooby Doo, this follows on from our suggested storybook Dear Zoo and learning about animals and their care needs. Why don’t you and your child dress up and take part too…
Did you know…
There are various health benefits of exercising for children
A child who is encouraged to keep fit from a young age will be more likely to exercise throughout their lives. Research suggests inactive children are likely to become inactive adults. Exercise provides plenty of benefits for children and young people such as:
- Lowering stress
- Increasing self-esteem
- Building stronger muscles and bones
- Improves academic scores
- Socialising
If you or your child take part, then please email photographs or feedback to the nursery email or alternatively comment in the comment box below! We look forward to seeing all of your feedback and sharing it with our children and families!
