Let’s face it—for many of us, wintertime means a lot of indoor time. And indoor time often means a lot of unused energy, especially for our little ones.
Here are a few of our favorite books that actually get kids up and moving. And why not involve the whole family for a little bit of indoor exercise and reading?
Sounds fun to us!
Here are our top six picks to get kids moving, grooving, and burning energy:
The Busy Book: A Kid’s Guide to Fitness by Lizzy Rockwell
The ABCs of Yoga for Kids by Teresa Anne Power and illustrated by Kathleen Rietz
Bearobics by Vic Parker and illustrated by Emily Bolam
Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes by Mike Wohnoutka
Let’s Get the Rhythm by Anne Miranda
