1. Present yourselves
2. Whistle
When we hear the whistle, we "stop and listen!"
3. We are sitting on the "Sportball line!"
Week 1, we keep it as simple as possible to build their confidence.
We name 3 body parts, then we encourage the kids. Repeat two more sets.
1. Bridge
2. Pink Flamingo
3. Elevator
Week 1, keep it simple and jump as high as possible
Keep it simple every single week.
For the 2-3 year old: For the first two weeks, we race everyone together, but starting on week 3, the parents wait for the kids on the Sportball line, as the kids huddle around the coach and on the count of 3, everyone runs to mom and dad to give them a big hug!
For the 4-6 year old: The kids race against the coach, where the coaches looses every week, but wins on week 6. Every time the coach looses, we ask the kids what we can tell the coach who lost and who is sad. The kids will normally say, nice try and we make the group repeat a nice thing to the looser of the race. When the coaches win, it's important to tell them the nice things that they told the coaches in the previous classes, such as "nice try".
