Mandatory features of proper charging
So, what is it, correct charging? This concept includes several criteria:
- Gradual: under no circumstances force your child to start with something difficult. For example, do not immediately demand from him a perfect stretch so that when he bends over, he can rest his palms on the floor. The same can be said about the load. Increase it gradually, starting small. However, still do not rush. Before you is a growing, forming organism, work with which must be carried out with special care and caution.
- Systematicity: as in any other matter, regularity is important. That is, follow a specific exercise schedule. Ideally, children should study at the same time every morning. But here who has what opportunities.
- Variety: You should change the exercise program from time to time so that the child's muscles and body adapt to different types of exercise and new neural connections are formed in the brain. Use his favorite toys - do exercises with a ball, jump rope, etc. You can manage to come up with what words you say and what words the child says while doing exercises for children. This will stir up interest and contribute to a fun time.
- Moderation: Avoid overtiring your child. Better less and high quality than fast and nothing at all.
- Accessibility: Remember, this is a small child. You don't need complicated curtsies and plie squats. Simple stretches, turns, bends, squats and jumps are enough.
Charging stages
Any physical activity includes several stages:
- Warm up. This stage helps to invigorate and prepare the body muscles for more active exercises. As a rule, it does not take too much time to complete it.
- Warming up To avoid problems during your workout, be sure to warm up with vigorous exercise, such as walking in place or jogging in place. For children, this helps to work out the muscles and tendons of the legs and prevent flat feet.
- The main part consists of more complex exercises that should be aimed at strengthening the muscles.
- Conclusion. Towards the end of the training, the child should switch to easier exercises, such as walking in place. This helps normalize blood pressure, even out breathing and simply relax.
Kinds
There are several types of charging. Its variety helps to change the type of activity to another and give the child a break if he is tired of one or another exercise or is still finding it difficult.
Fun exercise for children
This activity takes the form of a game and is ideal for children from two to three years old. This age is ideal to start introducing them to sports. At this time, children are extremely restless, so why not channel their energy in the right direction? Moreover, everyone loves games, and they help develop ingenuity and an analytical mind.
Warm-up exercises
This type of sports activity does not mean a full-fledged workout, but a short warm-up, which perfectly helps to cheer up, recover from sleep and tune in for the coming day.
Power charging
Yes, no matter how paradoxical it may sound, children also need to be given a certain load in order to develop their muscles and endurance. The main purpose of this type of exercise is to use certain muscle groups during exercise.
In the case of children, strength exercises include running, lifting toys, jumping, and so on.
What does morning exercise do for children?
Exercising in the morning has a beneficial effect on the functioning of the whole body. In the case of children, exercise or so-called gymnastics helps them wake up, strengthen their body, improve appetite, speed up metabolic processes, harmonize sleep and much more.
First of all, performing sports exercises instills in a child a desire for discipline and composure, which will be very useful to him in the future in adulthood.
- Moreover, it would seem that such a simple activity develops willpower in a little person, trains the spirit and increases endurance.
- Often, exercises for children are organized in kindergarten. There, trained specialists work with them, who are their educators or special trainers.
- Educators know which movements are suitable for exercise in young children and which are not. This is why the risk of injury is reduced to a minimum.
- However, not all parents send their children to kindergarten. And certainly not everyone adheres to the regime on weekends, when the child takes a break from visiting kindergarten.
- Unfortunately, parents find this activity boring, but what can we say about their kids? However, there is always a way out!
To make the process less boring, choose music to energize your children. Usually these are funny songs from good old Soviet cartoons or more modern melodies.
Music in the background will help your child understand the rhythm, and the lesson itself (even if it only lasts 15 minutes) will take place in a relaxed atmosphere.
Recommendations
Before starting classes with children, the following circumstances should be considered:
- You are dealing with a growing, not yet fully formed organism, which has fragile bones, so calculate your strength and do not put a strong load;
- Choose exercises that involve only smooth movements. Avoid harshness;
- Always consider the order of charging steps and do not ignore them;
Even in exercises, be systematic and orderly. That is, start with exercises for the upper body and end with the lower body.
