Physical development in preschool
Children's fitness is a system of activities aimed at strengthening and maintaining the health of children.
The use of fitness movements in kindergarten not only fuels interest in sports activities and teaches them to enjoy physical activity, but also improves health. Children learn to understand and control their bodies. They develop muscle strength and body plasticity, acquire correct posture and a harmonious physique.
Sports activities in kindergarten not only develop children physically, but also have a beneficial effect on their psychomotor state. Kindergarten children develop harmoniously physically, spiritually and aesthetically.
Fitness goals in kindergarten
Physical activity contributes to the development of many qualities of a child. This includes the development of motor skills, high performance, and successful mastery of new material.
Outdoor games and physical exercise have a beneficial effect on processes such as memory, attention, imagination and thinking. Sport not only develops, but also disciplines and gives self-confidence.
At the same time, physical education can help children of different temperaments:
- passive guys will be able to open up to new energies, increasing their vitality;
- hyperactive kindergarteners will learn to harmoniously distribute their energy costs;
- capricious children will be able to feel the strength of their body and become more resilient.
It is all these problems that fitness for children is designed to solve.
If we take a separate kindergarten, then the main tasks of fitness in a preschool institution are:
- Formation and improvement of children’s physical qualities (endurance, coordination, strength, agility, speed)
- Prevention of disorders in the musculoskeletal system
- Introduction to healthy lifestyle and sports
These tasks are specified based on the age group of the children.

"Air balloons"
Imagine that you are all balloons, very beautiful and cheerful. They cheat you and you become lighter and lighter. Your whole body becomes light and weightless.
