Children, Energy And Pleasure: Exercises And Dances For Containment – Being Parents
Children are used to being on the move all day, playing, running and moving around. This situation of confinement in homes can therefore be very shocking for them when their activity stops.
So that this does not happen, and so that adults and children alike can burn off energy and activate without leaving the house, here is a selection of exercises and dances to do while in confinement.
Get moving during confinement with these exercises and dances
Maintaining good health is very important today. That is why, even though we adults cannot go to the gym and the little ones cannot enjoy their extracurricular sports activities, we have to exercise every day or on a regular basis.
The Youtube video platform is an essential ally during this period. It can help us exercise without leaving home. We leave you with a selection of the best exercises and dances to perform with the little ones during confinement.
Singing
Singing is a great exercise that a family can do at home. And Youtube can help us a lot! The little ones will love it.
The “Nursery Rhymes and Songs” channel of the video sharing platform is perfect for this. You will find there all the classics of your childhood, with the lyrics. But also videos with more modern songs, for older children.
Individual songs, mash-ups , classics… This category will delight the little ones and they will be in constant movement and sing along with these funny children’s characters.
JustDance
The YouTube channel that references one of the funniest and best-known video console dance games of recent years also includes exercises and music for the little ones.
For example, in video on this channel, we can have the opportunity to dance with Elsa and one of the most memorable songs from the movie Frozen 2. What better combination for the little ones to dance with one of their quintessential favorite princesses?
Zumba for children
Zumba is one of the hottest sporting activities these days. As it is an activity mainly intended for dancing, and because of its success, zumba classes have also been created for children.
The intensity of such courses is less, since they are aimed at children, but their effectiveness is the same. That way, it’s a great option for kids to get moving, spending energy, and exercising at the same time.
You just have to type “ zumba pour enfants ” or even “ zumba kids ” in the YouTube search engine to find hundreds of videos with choreography for the little ones.
Get moving at home: exercises and dances during confinement
In addition to the YouTube tool, other types of social networks can help us move around during this confinement. Many Instagram accounts, managed by gyms or, where applicable, directly by coaches, offer daily or weekly classes for adults and children.
You can find them by typing, for example, #bougezchezvous. While most accounts are reserved for adults, many coaches tailor their activities to children and allow them to move.
Do not forget either that a simple entry on a search engine, with the words “sport” and “children” can allow you to find activities to be carried out during the confinement. Do not hesitate any longer and start moving with your family now!
