Bringing back jump rope!
April 22, 2009Membership Meeting Highlights – April
April 24, 2009A few weeks back I posted a segment from my Babycenter email, encouraging kids to play outside. I also wrote to Babycenter congratulating them, and referring them to the Leave No Child Inside movement to further develop the topic. Well guess what I received in my email today?
BabyCenter – My 4-Year-Old:
Hold Off on Sports
Wondering what kind of sport your child should take up? For most 4-year-olds, the question is premature. While some show an early interest in athletics, many won’t be enthusiastic for quite a while. The healthiest course for all preschoolers ‘” even the ones who seem like promising athletes ‘” is to get daily physical activity in lots of ways, including plenty of undirected play.
YAY!
