Sports and Children at Wonderful Years

by Mimi Say
Please watch how much effort children put in to perform a task. Please observe too the amount of effort they put in. Most important, the role of teachers are to encourage, not to discourage. The amount of time and effort that both the teachers and children have poured in especially to learn skipping is commendable.


6-year-olds practising skipping with support from peers.
I have seen so many of them transformed from do not want to participate, too scared, no confidence, do not know how to skip to skipping fast and excitedly. Most of them have not been introduced to this type of activity. Thanks to teachers who have put in much effort, this is the result that the children can be proud of. Hopefully parents will continue this type of active gross motor skills at home.


3 and 4-year-olds attempting the Pony Ride.
Even though some of them have no confidence or fear of attempting something new, with right amount of encouragement and motivation, they will be able to do it.


5-year-olds Confidently Whizzing Past their friends

Older children have no qualms or fear at manoeuvring little trikes. Confidence will be elevated when they are able to take control of their gross motor skills.
Team play effort will be strengthened when their friends cheered excitedly for each team members.
