Por que funciona

Physical activity supports both body and brain development in young children. Research shows that children engaging in physically active play improve their cognitive function and academic achievement (Donnelly et al., 2016). Active movement also helps children develop emotional regulation skills and reduces stress. At this age, playful physical activity builds the foundation for lifelong healthy habits while supporting your child's growing coordination and strength.

Dicas para os pais

Let your child choose animals too. This keeps them engaged and excited. Make it easier or harder by adjusting the movements. Slower animals work well when energy is high. Celebrate effort over perfection. The goal is movement and fun together.
