Fun With Fitness Curriculum Overview
Parachute Play, the Hokey Pokey, yoga, dancing and relay races…what could be better
ways
for children to stay fit? Fun With Fitness, our health and fitness program was
created to
do just that. The children have fun and are challenged with different
physical activities
every day while learning about their bodies, nutrition and
healthy food choices.
Creating a healthy lifestyle in a hectic and hurried world has become a priority
for
today’s families. We want to partner with you in that endeavor with
Fun With Fitness,
a daily educational program that is both fun and stimulating
for children. In
addition to daily physical activities like those noted above,
children will try
healthy, new recipes that they prepare themselves in
the classroom.
Children
will also learn about the food pyramid, eating
a balanced diet, making
good food choices and the importance of drinking
water and milk.
Our Fun With Fitness curriculum is utilized throughout all of our classrooms.
It is introduced in the infant room and continues throughout the Toddler and Preschool
programs through the implementation of age-appropriate physical activities. The
entire family is included in the fun and learning, too! Each week, healthy recipes and
suggested activities are sent home for the family to be involved in together.
Every two weeks the children will have a new themed session to explore different
physical activities.
These sessions include:
