Children’s Movement Program

Coordinated by the Departments of Brock Sports and Recreation, and Kinesiology.

Winter 2023 Children’s Movement Program

Ages walking through 12

Jump, climb, explore, dance, and play games! This Saturday morning program is based on Brock’s movement education program, incorporating problem-solving and decision-making skills. Educational gymnastics, creative dance, and developmental games challenge children to be active and try new skills.

For children who have a special need, volunteer movement partners are available to provide one-on-one interaction and provide appropriate assistance so that your child is an active participant in the program.
