Our Pre-Kindy children had an energetic and fun-filled session during Move It Dance, where music, movement, and coordination came together to create a lively learning experience.
💃 Moving to the Beat
Some children chose to observe quietly at first, while others eagerly joined in—dancing, stretching, and moving their bodies to the rhythm. This inclusive environment allowed each child to participate in a way that felt comfortable, while still remaining engaged with the group.
🥄 Balancing, Walking & Problem-Solving
During the session, the children practiced balancing a ball on a spoon and carefully walking across the room to place it into a bucket. Their goal was to collect four balls, which encouraged:
- focus and concentration
- hand–eye coordination
- body control and balance
- perseverance and confidence
The excitement on their faces showed how much they enjoyed the challenge!
🥁 Rhythm & Music Exploration
Children also used sticks to tap on the ground, creating rhythms that matched the music. This activity supported:
- auditory awareness
- timing and rhythm
- motor planning
- creative expression
Music-based movement activities like these are powerful tools for early learning, promoting both physical development and emotional wellbeing.
❤️ Learning Through Fun & Movement
Move It Dance is a wonderful opportunity for children to explore their bodies, build confidence, and enjoy being active in a joyful, supportive environment. These moments help lay the foundation for physical literacy, teamwork, and a positive relationship with movement.
