Score BIG with Sports!

Did you know that participation in sports has been linked to an increase in confidence and a decrease in anxiety, depression, and stress? Not to mention increased creativity, cognitive function, and quality of life - that’s certainly worth cheering for!

Boost Confidence and Foster Teamwork

Winning is always a part of the game when it comes to gaining a sports-induced self-esteem boost and lifelong skills!

• Encourage your kiddo to believe in themselves with the hit, I Can Do That by Blazer Fresh’s Arn Star and tennis champ, Sloane Stephens!
• Teamwork makes the dream work! What better way to reinforce teamwork than with a mindful example from a colony of ants?
• Communication as a team sport?! Yep! Just try to complete this activity without good communication to learn all about why working as a team includes talking things out.

No Court? No Problem

Who needs a court when you have GoNoodle! Movement is at the heart of most sports and also at the core of our mission. You’ll get a kick out of these sports themed activities that don’t require any special equipment or extra space.

• What do you get when you combine a little bit of math with football? AN EDUCATIONAL TOUCHDOWN! Add a mathematical twist to your next tabletop football game with this sports-inspired measurement activity.
• Set a timer and race to the finish line with an indoor obstacle course that you can build right in your living room! Or get some fresh air and explore the great outdoors with these ideas for an outdoor obstacle course.

Spark Imagination

Fun fact: Soccer or fútbol was originally called Tsu Chu (which literally translates to ‘kicking the ball’)  and traces back to 2500 BCE in ancient China!

• Learn all about how much GoNoodle Champ, Super Rufus, loves soccer in I Love Soccer!

Although most sports have been around for hundreds of years, that doesn’t mean that your kiddo can’t be inspired to create a sport of their own!

• Let your kids’ imagination run wild and their creativity flourish as they complete this activity to create their very own sport.

Don’t let the shot clock expire on sports week! Tackle boredom this summer with even more videos and activities in the Sports & Teamwork channel and the Summertime channel and check back every Monday for a new theme!
