Boing, boing, boing; that’s the sound of my kids bouncing off the walls. If your kids have a lot of energy like mine do, you know that a bad weather day can make everyone miserable. Helping them burn off energy is essential to keeping them happy and healthy, but how do you do it when you are stuck indoors? Here are a few of our favorite indoor physical activities!
Do you remember being stuck indoors as a child? I do! Sometimes I would make weird noises, annoy my mom, or try dangerous stunts to relieve my cabin fever. Now that I’m a mom, I don’t like seeing my children go through the same torture. Plus, their behavior is a lot better once they let out some of that energy in positive ways!
5 Physical Activities Your Kids Can Do Indoors!
1. Dance, Dance, Dance
Who doesn’t like to dance in the privacy of their own home? Sometimes I’ll dance with the kids. We’ll take turns leading each other with different moves back and forth across the room. Then we’ll have a little dance show and take turns dancing to our favorite music; watching and clapping for each other.
Janine, your indoor physical activity ideas are fantastic for keeping kids active and happy, especially on bad weather days. Dancing is not only fun but also a great way to bond with them. Your commitment to providing homeschool resources is commendable. Keep up the inspiring work!
