Thurston Mini Movers is the perfect way to nurture your little ones natural love of movement in a structured yet relaxed environment. Themes, music, props and games are used to develop balance, coordination and imagination, and grown-ups are encouraged to join in the fun too!
A typical Mini Movers session looks like this:
- Warm up- sat down, lots of stretching and wiggling!
- Introductions and welcome song
- Introducing theme – space!
- Story time
- Movement game
- Parachute games
- Warm down – seated again
- Goodbye song
From a Mini Movers session, you can expect:
✓ Development of co-ordination, balance, stability, and strength
✓ Supported healthy movement habits in children from a young age
✓ Strengthening of relationships between adults and their children
✓ A safe, supported space for little people to move and have fun!
This weekly class will run every Monday from 17 June, 10.00am-11.30am at Thurston Library. The session includes half an hour at the end for refreshments and socialising. Please note: the sessions end on Monday 15 July for the summer.
