About this service

A physical literacy program, Active Start is for children ages 2 to 6 is built on the rationale that when children receive early instruction in basic motor skills and developmentally appropriate play there is an excellent opportunity for improvement in their physical, social and cognitive abilities.

The program spans 12 weeks with specific objectives for each, including basic movement concepts, static balance, running, stopping/starting, jumping, throwing/rolling a ball, catching/trapping a ball, kicking a ball, and striking a ball. The last few weeks introduce more advanced skills that require the young athletes to combine the skills introduced in the earlier weeks, while providing opportunities to practice and apply skills through cooperation and teamwork.

Who can use it?

Children ages 2 to 6
