• Children are to be seen, heard and believed.
• Youngsters will thrive in a loving and noncompetitive
• environment
where they feel physically and emotionally safe.

a child's learning, comprehension and retention.
• Keeping a very low student/teacher ratio
is the only way to

individual attention young children require.
• Fun, variety and excitement are crucial
elements in motivating
• youngsters.
• Attitudes toward health and fitness begin
forming in the early
• years.
• Children delight in getting to know and
control their own
• bodies.

a physical task
• builds self-esteem
and confidence that carries over into all

a child's life.

kindness, patience,
• love and understanding.
• A youngster's first seven years have a profound
influence
• on the rest

An active and physically fit youngster is a happy,
healthy
• one.
• There are countless lessons to be learned
through
• structured,
group physical activity when presented in the
• proper manner.
• Children learn to listen, to follow directions,
to be
• independent
and to cooperate in a group.
• They learn self-control and self-discipline.
• They learn to work for a goal and to work
hard.
• They acquire social skills and learn more
about themselves
• as they interact
with one another and the teachers.
• A child's vocabulary increases and even
his/her sense of
• humor.
• Most important of all, however, is the evolving
of a healthy
• self-image.
A child who feels good about him/herself has a
• jump-start
on the path to becoming a happy, well-adjusted
• adult! |
