What's included
1 live meeting
30 mins in-class hoursClass Experience
Welcome to the farm! During this class, your child will workout with some of their favorite farm animals! With a classic song we will learn and sing together, and some help from our animal friends, learners will perform various balance, agility, and strength exercises. No prior experience needed. No supplies or equipment needed! Come dressed in comfortable clothes and sneakers if you'd like. Oh! Don’t forget to bring all your energy and a water bottle too! If you have some favorite farm animal friends, I’d love to meet them! Bring all your pals! Pretending to be farm animals makes this upbeat fitness workout fun and entertaining! Children will learn various exercises while making fun animal noises! Class will begin with an introduction to the song (Old McDonald) as well as talking about our favorite farm animals. I wonder if we will see your favorite animal on the farm! I will first guide students through the warm-up and stretching. Safety first! Next, I will model and perform a variety of exercises as we spend our time playing on Old McDonald’s farm. E-I-E-I-O! Finally, class will finish with a cool down stretch and conversation. Learners will have the opportunity to help me count out our exercise repetitions and guess which animal we will see next! You can expect your child to receive lots of encouragement and praise throughout our workout. They will leave feeling excited about fitness, and with some new exercises they can practice at home! Active fun for the whole family!
Learning Goals
Students will learn a fun song and REAL stretches and exercises while playing with our farm animal friends.
They will also be working towards achieving the daily physical activity recommendations of both the CDC and American Heart Association. According to the CDC, it is recommended that "children (3-5 years) should be physically active throughout the day for growth and development. Children and adolescents ages (6-17 years) should do 60 minutes or more of moderate-to-vigorous intensity physical activity each day, including daily aerobic – and activities that strengthen bones (like running or jumping) – 3 days each week, and that build muscles (like climbing or doing push-ups) – 3 days each week."
According to the American Heart Association:
Active kids are more likely to have:
-a healthy weight
-stronger, healthier bones and muscles
-better heart and brain health
-improved brain function, including memory, attention and problem-solving
-better school attendance and academic performance, especially in math, reading and writing
-lower long-term risk of cardiovascular diseases, diabetes and some kinds of cancer
-less stress and fewer symptoms of anxiety and depression
-less inappropriate and distracting classroom behavior
-improved mental health and psychological well-being, including confidence and self-esteem
