| Kids Fitness Games | It is never too early to start turning your kids on to different kinds of exercise. When children are playing games they are less interested in the fact that they are exercising, and more interested in the fact that they are having a fun. There are several games that children of all ages can play to stay active and some of them can be found below.
Duck Duck Goose
This is one of the popular games among toddlers. Firstly children sit in a circle, and then one person stands up to pat each head and say duck – duck – duck. Finally the child will touch someone's head that child needs to get up and catch them before child can run to the open spot and sit down. If they beat the goose they get to sit while the new child picks the goose.
Hide and Seek
Another famous game among the young children is hide and seek. One child counts to ten, somebody of adults can help them do it, and other children hide. After that one child has to try to find the other children and tag them before they reach home base. First who will be tag start to count and others start to hide again.
Capture the Flag
There are two teams in this game. Both of them have a flag, which is located on opposite ends of the field. The main goal of each team is to try to capture adversary’s flag and bring it back to their side. The first team which does it wins.
Blanket Sleds
Give children an old blanket to play with, and they can take turns sitting on it, while they pull one or more around the grass with it. If you have steep hills around your home, give your children some cardboard boxes to slide down them with. They may not use much energy sliding down hills, but thing of the exercise they will get climbing back up.
