Flying Start @ Penryn are getting physical!
Flying Start @ Penryn have been exploring all aspects of a healthy lifestyle!
The toddlers and preschool have been doing a weekly gym club, where they warm up, explore activities such as balance or coordination, do some singing and dancing and then cool down at the end.
As you can see the movements do get quite physical!
The toddlers here are learning how to stretch up high, side to side, crouch down low and even balance on their hands, feet and experimenting with one foot!
The children always have lots of fun during gym club and the time is also used to practice keeping safe – the children risk assess the room before starting and try to minimise any hazards, keeping healthy – lots of discussions about why exercise is good for us, and also exploring the effects exercise has and needing drinks of water afterwards!
