How To Keep Kids Physically Active In The Wintertime

It finally feels like winter here on Long Island. Now that the cold was swept in, your child may spend less and less time in the great outdoors. This could also make your child lead a more sedentary lifestyle. Below are some tips that will help your child stay physically active this season. 

Interactive Video Games
Traditional video games do not promote exercise. However, that is not the case today! Interactive video games can get your kids moving or grooving. Children can virtually play sports like tennis or baseball from the comfort of home. Other video games teach kids how to dance and bust a move!

Indoor Playgrounds
On a cold winter's day, going to a playground in your town is simply not an option. That's why there are indoor playgrounds. It gives your child the chance to run around, play, climb and explore. Do some research on indoor playgrounds in your area. The local mall might provide a small indoor obstacle course.

Indoor Sports
It is important to keep in mind that not all sports are played outdoors. There are plenty of sports that can be played inside. Try your hand at indoor roller skating! 

We hope that the tips above help your child stay physically active this season. At Miss Sue’s Nursery School, our prime educational goal is the development of the whole child — physically, socially, emotionally, and educationally.
