Movement Break Cards and Brain Break Cards: Animal walks

Animal themed pe game, brain break cards and movement cards to get kids moving! We all know how important physical activity is for children’s physical development, as well as their physical and mental well-being. These cards are designed to inspire fun-filled movement games that kids will enjoy. Instructions for multiple ways to play included.

Who are these cards suitable for?

Anyone! They are particularly suited to younger children, preschool - 2nd grade. However, my older primary school kids always have fun when I get these out. They are designed to be suitable to all abilities and can be easily adapt as needed. They are great for use in the regular classroom, special education room, occupational/physical therapy and physical education.

When to use the cards

The cards can be used for a movement break at any point during the day! Use at circle time, between sedentary tasks, free time or any time children would benefit from moving. These cards are fun for use during PE or in group/individual physical and occupational therapy. Use these cards to get the wiggles out, strengthen gross motor skills, improve concentration, and set up a positive learning environment for your preschool, young children and elementary aged learners.

As a specialist pediatric physical therapist, I’m always exploring new and fun ways to inspire physical activity in children. Regular exercise is so important for children’s development, as well as their physical and mental well-being. Furthermore, regular movement breaks during sedentary tasks, such as homework, actually improves concentration!

The pages are formatted suitable for A4 or US letter size (standard home or school printers).

I recommend laminating the cards for long-term durability.
