Physical Education
Les Garderies K.I.D.S. provides your child with movement and gross motor activities designed to build strong bodies and allows a positive outlet for the high energy level most children exhibit.
At les Garderies K.I.D.S. the educators work to strengthen gross motor skills on a daily basis, both indoors and outdoors. Gross motor activities develop the large muscle groups which are important for everyday functions such as sitting, standing, walking, and jumping.
At les Garderie K.I.D.S. the children enjoy our specialized play areas and local parks. During the warm seasons the children enjoy outdoor activities twice daily. Some locations offer neighborhood walks. When there is inclement weather or the temperature goes below -26 degrees Celsius (with the wind chill) we use our indoor facilities for activities such as dance, parachute games, and hopscotch. A recently added feature is our balancing equipment and child sized exercise equipment.
