This month Harlequin Poppies had a visit from a member of the ‘Little Superstars’ team. He came and introduced the children to lots of fun outdoor sporting activities including athletics, cricket and weaving their bodies in and out of some cones. The children showed very good balancing skills as they balanced bean bags on different parts of their bodies and ran round trying not to drop them.
Research has shown that physical activity in young children can enhance concentration, motivation, learning and well-being, so we provide as many opportunities as posible for physical movement every day, both indoors and out.
