Do you remember your childhood? Running barefoot through the garden, climbing trees, and daring to do the highest jumps on the playground? Today, many children spend more and more time indoors – but exercise is essential for their development.
Whether in the garden or the living room, children need space to try things out, push boundaries, and grow confidently. Because exercise not only strengthens muscles and balance, but also self-confidence and creativity.
Learning through play: Movement as the key to development
Running, jumping, or balancing is about much more than just fun. Children train their motor skills, sharpen their senses, and learn how to control their bodies. Studies show that those who exercise a lot at a young age not only develop a better body awareness but also benefit at school through increased concentration and stamina.
How parents can encourage physical activity in everyday life
Not every child has access to a large garden or a nearby playground around the clock. But exercise is possible anywhere! Here are a few simple ideas:
Obstacle course in the living room – create creatively with pillows, mats and furniture.
Balance beam for indoors & outdoors – perfect for balance and coordination.
Your own gymnastics bar at home – height adjustable and safe so children can climb, swing and grow.
Integrate exercise into your everyday life – walk to school, take the stairs instead of the elevator, or simply get out into nature together!
