Get moving

Fun, playful ways to get bodies moving, build gross motor skills and have an active break!

Movement can be play too! This collection is full of fun ways to jump, balance, swat, swing, dance and get those wiggles out.

Whether indoors or outdoors, solo or with others, these activities can be fun and rejuvenating for all ages and help build coordination, strength, and confidence while keeping things light and enjoyable.

No fancy equipment needed - just a bit of space and a willingness to move!
