For an easier version, have them rest in between each fish or car. Drive cars or have fish toys swim under the bridge to encourage them to participate. Then have your child lift up their hips and hold it to make a bridge. Have your child lie on their back on the floor, with their knees bent and feet flat on the floor.The following indoor activities for kids are fun ways to incorporate exercise to encourage improving core strength: Active play can boost creativity, imagination, problem-solving skills, social skills, and more!

The moves train body awareness, as well as improve balance, coordination, and control. During the 30, 45 or 55-minute classes children move and sing their way through simple choreography. LesMills Born to Move – Focusing on fun rather than formal exercise routines, these classes introduce fundamental movement skills.
