Synopsis:
When it comes to fitness, tweens may need parents and teachers to keep up!
No longer satisfied with the simple games of childhood, tweens want activities that test their developing mental and physical skills. They like to exercise their independence while they flex their muscles, and the key to success lies in finding exercises and games that can keep up with their changing needs. Tweens who are active and engaged in physical play are building healthy habits that can last a lifetime.
These fitness activities help develop
- Muscle Strength
- Goal Setting
- Friendly Competition
- Determination
- Strategic Thinking
- Teamwork
Challenge your tween with these exciting and complex activities
From circuit training and obstacle courses to strength training, this book is filled with exercises that were chosen for their appeal to a wide range of developing personalities. Wechsler also provides guidance for motivating tweens and includes examples of exercise combinations and schedules to help keep physical fitness fun and challenging.
Many of the activities in 303 Tween-Approved Exercises and Active Games incorporate friends and classmates as teammates or opponents, encouraging group play, leadership and the desire to do it all again. Helpful icons indicate group size, space and equipment needs. Parents and teachers will find it easy to adapt activities for skill level and variety, and may find themselves participating in and enjoying the games just as much as the tweens.
With so many options for fun and excitement, how could any tween resist the opportunity to exercise?

Paperback. Condition: New. Sleva, Michael (illustrator). 303 TWEEN-APPROVED EXERCISES AND ACTIVE GAMES is written specifically for kids ages 9-12 years old. Kimberley Wechsler, a specialist in Kid's Fitness, took into account the fundamental attributes of being a child while developing these exercises. Children have specific physiologic differences that make them unique. They grow, mature and develop skills at different ages, so what may be skill appropriate for one child could be harmful for another child. These exercises reflect the emotional, social, physical level of this age group.Children of this age group are now at the skill level in which physical challenges like mind, body, meditation, balance, muscle strengthening and sport performance building exercises become very important. Sports skills and drills can now be developed and competition is highlighted and welcomed within this age group. Kids at this age like to show off their talents so it is important for teachers and parents to observe and provide positive feedback on all of their accomplishments. At this age, tweens want to belong to a sport, group or identify with a sport celebrity to begin to define who they are and what their likes are; friends, also, tend to become more of an influence than parents at this age. Bad behaviour patterns and peer pressure have now developed - -making it more difficult to change current patterns - -but it can be done. 303 TWEEN-APPROVED EXERCISES AND ACTIVE GAMES can help tweens build confidence in high-pressure situations and build their social skills through playing team sports.
