Great motor skills can help children coordinate their environment with larger objects, learn new sports and participate in daily activities. Children learn to control large muscles first, and then learn to control smaller muscles. Superb sports skills are an important part of the development of excellent sports.
How to cultivate children's big sports skills?
Activities to cultivate children's sports skills can be divided into four categories. The following activities will help children get enough attention and better develop their body muscle function.
?
First, aerobic exercise.
?
"Improving oxygen uptake and promoting metabolism" is very important for maintaining good blood circulation and promoting muscle formation.
Suitable age: one and a half years old and above
?
1. Turn jumps on and off.
Jumping is the best exercise for children. They can play this sport on the sofa, bed or lawn. The opening jump is suitable for children who have just turned one and a half years old or above and have just learned to walk recently. But parents should not let them jump rope at the beginning, and then let them learn to jump rope when they are about to enter school.
?
climb the stairs
You can encourage them to climb the stairs slowly and steadily. It's a crawling process at first, and then the children will start crawling. Parents must ensure that they will not fall or get hurt, and be extra careful when helping their children improve their big sports skills by climbing stairs.
?
dance
For children, dancing is a pleasant and healthy activity. As a parent, you can also participate in the dance, so that children will experience more sense of participation. You don't have to worry about children's imperfect dance steps, but let them devote themselves to physical exercise, which is necessary for them to develop their muscles.
?
Two. Water-related activities
?
Underwater sports require children to exert greater strength to overcome resistance, which is why playing in water helps to improve muscle formation and structure. ?
Suitable age: over two years old
?
1.？ Fill a small bucket with water and lift it.
Give the child a small bucket filled with half a bucket of water and let him/her move the bucket to another place. This activity will make children's limbs and arms stronger. We suggest you start with a very light weight and gradually increase it.
?
2.？ swim
Swimming can not only improve children's muscle coordination, but also improve their vital capacity and immunity. Therefore, you can encourage children to play in the swimming pool and let them learn to swim as soon as possible when they are 2-3 years old.
?
3. Water polo
This sport is played in the bathtub. You can slowly throw a ball at the child and see if he/she can catch it and throw it back. Often encouraging them to pitch harder is good for muscle development.
?
Third, outdoor sports.
?
Playing outdoors can improve children's physical resistance. In addition, children will be more confident when socializing.
Suitable age: over four years old
?
1. Set obstacles
You can create an obstacle playground for children with tapered ropes and tires. However, please don't set obstacles very hard, or children will lose interest.
?
2.？ trampoline
Trampoline is fun and safe. You can put one in the garden or lawn at home and play on it with your children.
?
Fourth, DIY activities
?
In addition to the above three kinds of games, you can also do some interesting things with your children and let them participate in some interesting activities that are easy to do at home.
Suitable for age: please design according to the age of the child.
?
1. Exercise at home
If you want to improve your child's big sports skills, you can take your child to exercise at home first and repeat the exercises with your child.
?
Step 2 knot the ball
First, find a net of the right size and tie four knots at four points. Let the child hold the two ends, you hold the other two ends, then put the ball in, try to roll the ball to the corner and don't fall. These activities help to improve children's limbs, arms and hand muscles.
