Kids Indoor Exercise Example
There are a ton of kids’ exercises that you can conduct indoors. You do have options. If you are one of the few who can afford gym or club memberships for the whole family, you can take them indoors and participate in a number of healthy activities.
Some of us, though, have to budget our money a little tighter these days and spend more on groceries and gas. And some of us would rather stay home occasionally so we can participate in healthy family activities in a comfortable environment.
Either way, there are fun kids’ indoor exercises for every type of child. Do you have a creative child? Athletic child? Energetic child? No problem.
Some kids want to craft their own project using construction paper, markers, and glue and then turn that project into an indoor exercise.
As a parent, you get to help in your child’s physical development from day one. You will get to watch your child gain strength, lose unhealthy excess weight, and gain confidence and coordination!
Here’s an example of a fun and easy kids’ indoor exercise for a five-year-old.
Age 5
Scoop Ball
This activity improves:
• Hand-eye coordination
• Creativity
• Athleticism
For this exercise, you will need a few empty plastic containers with handles, a soft medium-sized ball, and masking tape. Cut the bottoms off of the containers and tape over the edges so no one gets cut.
Hold the containers by the handles with the open end up, so it resembles a scooper. You and the child should each hold a scoop. Throw the ball to him, instructing him to catch it with his scoop. Once he gets the hang of that, have him throw the ball to you in return so you can catch it with your scoop. After several tries, you may lengthen the distance between you and the child.
This exercise will help develop skills for him to play many different sports. For the artistic child, it also provides an opportunity for creativity. The two of you can decorate the cartons together before playing the game.
