3 year old exercises
Fitness and Your 3- to 5-Year-Old (for Parents)
By the time kids are 3 to 5 years old, their physical skills, like running, jumping, kicking, and throwing, have come a long way. Now they'll continue to refine these skills and build on them to learn more complex ones.
Take advantage of your child's natural tendency to be active. Regular physical activity promotes healthy growth and development and learning new skills builds confidence.
Fitness for Preschoolers
Physical activity guidelines recommend that preschoolers:
- are physically active throughout the day
- move and engage in both active play and structured (adult-led) physical activity
- do activities such as jumping, hopping, and tumbling to strengthen bones
Preschoolers should participate in a variety of fun and challenging physical activities that help build skills and coordination, but aren't beyond their abilities. Preschoolers should be active about 3 hours a day, including light, moderate, and vigorous activities.
Kids this age are learning to hop, skip, and jump forward, and are eager to show off how they can balance on one foot, catch a ball, or do a somersault. Preschoolers also might enjoy swimming, playing on a playground, dancing, and riding a tricycle or bicycle with training wheels.
Many parents look to organized sports to get preschoolers active. But the average preschooler has not mastered the basics, such as throwing, catching, and taking turns. Even simple rules may be hard for them to understand, as any parent who has watched their child run the wrong way during a game knows.
And starting too young can be frustrating for kids and may discourage future participation in sports. So if you decide to sign your preschooler up for soccer or another team sport, be sure to choose a peewee league that focuses on fun and learning the fundamentals.
Family Fitness Tips
Playing together, running in the backyard, or using playground equipment at a local park can be fun for the entire family.
Other activities to try together, or for a group of preschoolers to enjoy, include:
- playing games such as "Duck, Duck, Goose" or "Follow the Leader," then mixing it up with jumping, hopping, and walking backward
- kicking a ball back and forth or into a goal
- hitting a ball off a T-ball stand
- playing freeze dance or freeze tag
Kids can be active even when they're stuck indoors. Designate a safe play area and try some active inside games:
- Treasure hunt: Hide "treasures" throughout the house and provide clues to their locations.
- Obstacle course: Set up an obstacle course with chairs, boxes, and toys for the kids to go over, under, through, and around.
- Soft-ball games: Use soft foam balls to play indoor basketball, bowling, soccer, or catch. You can even use balloons to play volleyball or catch.
When Should I Call the Doctor?
If your child doesn't want to play or join other kids in sports or complains of pain during or after being active, talk with your doctor.
Kids who enjoy sports and exercise tend to stay active throughout their lives. And being active can improve learning and attention, prevent obesity, and decrease the risk of serious illnesses such as high blood pressure, diabetes, and heart disease later in life.

en español La actividad física y su hijo de 2 a 3 años de edad
Kids this age are walking and running, kicking, and throwing. They're naturally active, so be sure to provide lots of chances for your child to practice and build on these skills.
How much is enough? Physical activity guidelines for toddlers recommend that each day they:
- get at least 30 minutes of structured (adult-led) physical activity
- get at least 60 minutes of unstructured (active free play) physical activity
- not be inactive for more than 1 hour at a time except when sleeping
What Kids Can Do
It's important to understand what kids can do and what skills are appropriate for this age. By age 2, toddlers should be able to walk and run well. They might be able to kick a ball and jump in place with both feet. By age 3, toddlers usually can balance briefly on one foot, kick a ball forward, throw a ball overhand, catch a ball, and pedal a tricycle.
Keep these skills in mind when encouraging your child to be active. Play games together and provide age-appropriate active toys, such as balls, push and pull toys, and riding vehicles. Through practice, toddlers will continue to improve and refine their motor skills.
Mommy-and-me programs can introduce toddlers to tumbling, dance, and general movement. But you don't have to enroll kids in a formal program to foster these skills. The most important thing is to provide lots of opportunities to be active in a safe environment.
Family Fitness Tips
Walking, playing, exploring your backyard, or using playground equipment at a local park can be fun for the entire family.
Also, these games provide fun and fitness for parents and toddlers:
- Walk like a penguin, hop like a frog, or imitate other animals' movements.
- Sit facing each other and hold hands. Rock back and forth and sing the song "Row, row, row your boat."
- Bend at the waist and touch the ground. Walk your hands forward and inch along like a caterpillar.
- Sit on the ground and let your child step over your legs, or make a bridge with your body and let your child crawl under.
- Play follow the leader, "Ring around the rosy," and other similar games.
- Listen to music and dance together.
The possibilities are endless — come up with your own active ideas or follow your child's lead. Also, limit the amount of time your child spends watching TV (including DVDs and videos) or playing on a computer, tablet, or smartphone.
When Should I Call the Doctor?
If your child doesn't want to play or join other kids in sports or complains of pain during or after being active, talk with your doctor.
Kids who are active at young age tend to stay active throughout their lives. And staying fit can improve self-esteem, prevent obesity, and decrease the risk of serious illnesses such as high blood pressure, diabetes, and heart disease later in life.

Summer assignments "Mom's school" grades 1,2,3,4, summer assignments
During the summer holidays, reading in primary school children worsens in more than 50% of students, writing - in 67%, and computing skills - in 75% students. In order to at least maintain the level of training skills and abilities, it is enough to train every day for 15 minutes during the summer holidays. This pattern underlies the organization of summer classes in many countries of the world. The same regularity is the basis for the work on notebooks "Mom's School" for the transition from 1st to 2nd, 2nd to 3rd, 3rd to 4th grade.
There are 30 tasks in each notebook. They are designed for 6 summer weeks (from July 16 to August 26), 5 lessons per week. Assignments include reading and rewriting text, solving examples, and solving a problem. Each work is evaluated by parents.
Approximate duration of training:
• Reading the text three times - 4 minutes
• Rewriting - 5 minutes
• Solving the example - 1 minute
• Solving the problem - 5 minutes
Total 15 minutes.
Please note the following:
- whether the text is meaningful
- whether the time decreases when reading three times
- whether the height and correctness of lowercase letters are maintained during rewriting and whether the writing speed has increased over the last lessons
- whether the time spent on calculations and the number of errors have decreased.
The first exercise is reading.
The text should be read three times, each time measuring how long it takes. The time spent will decrease as the reading speed will increase. Try to keep your reading speed from falling below normal, after the first grade it is 35 - 40 words per minute, after the third - 80 words per minute.
The second exercise is writing (Russian).
The read text must be carefully and carefully rewritten on the lined part of the page within five minutes. By counting the number of letters and dividing them by 5, we get the speed of writing. From day to day the speed of writing will increase. It must be at least 20 letters per minute after the first class and at least 60 after the third.
The third task is mathematics.
With daily training, the time spent on solving an example and a problem will decrease to three minutes.

Mom’s school transition to grade 3 (microsoft word document)
Mom’s school transition to grade 4 (microsoft word document) class for EMC School of Russia: Mom's school transition to grade 4 more difficult tasks (word). This option is not suitable for other programs. In particular, there are several tasks in parts, a task for speed, which have not yet been passed, for example, under the Perspektiva program, there are schemes for the Russian language, which are given only in the School of Russia. And in this option there are no equations, so you will additionally have to work on a mathematical simulator. Keep in mind that there is not enough space left for writing the text, and if the child has large handwriting, it is better to write texts in a notebook.
And at the request of visitors, we have made for you a set of tasks for the summer when moving from 4th to 5th grade, it is here at the link>>
This is the minimum, in addition to reading the literature assigned for the summer, that a child needs to support his mental activity and not to lose over the summer all the knowledge accumulated over the past academic year. "Mom's school", of course, may not be limited to only these tasks.
The corresponding simulators from our website will perfectly help you to improve your math, you can come to grips with Russian by giving your child tasks for check cheating or dictation, there are also complex works that combine knowledge in all subjects + logical thinking.
