Improve kids Mobility with these Mobility
Exercises
2

• Children today spend so much time sitting at
  school or doing the computer stuff that they are
  not getting the full range of movement that they
  could enjoy so it is appropriate for them to do
  some mobility exercises.
• The following mobility exercises are fun and low
  key but will ensure your children are supple and
  flexible. All stretching should be done when the
  body and muscles are warmed up so either a little
  exercise or may be jogging, riding a bike or
  swimming should be considered first.

Childs Pose

• Childs Pose is very relaxing
• Kneel on the mat with the toes touching and knees
  slightly apart
• Slowly bend the head over so forehead touches the
  ground in front. The arms can be at the side or
  placed in front to steady with the palms on the
  mat
• Exhale and inhale deeply and hold the pose for 5
  breaths

4
The Cat Cow

• The Cat Cow is good for the childs spine and
  strengthens the abdominal muscles
• Begin on all fours with the spine and neck in a
  comfortable neutral position
• Keep the back flat a bit like a table with the
  eyes looking straight down to the mat
• Inhale and slowly drop the stomach down towards
  the mat while lifting the head and neck up
• While exhaling, lift up the stomach and arch the
  spine like a cat with the eyes looking towards
  the belly button
• Do 5 to 10 of each stretch, then relax

5
Arm Stretch

• With the feet together, stand straight and raise
  the arms straight up with the elbows slightly
  bent, hands touching or apart
• Try a little back bend, but keep the chin
  straight
• Bring the arms down until they are straight out
  in front with the thumbs pointed down
• Gently swing both arms to the back like trying to
  squeeze a ball between your shoulder blades and
  bring forward again. Repeat 5 times

6
Shoulder Stretch

• Extend your right arm straight out in front and
  place the left wrist on the right are a little
  above the elbow
• Pull the right arm across the body with your left
  until you feel a stretch
• Repeat with the opposite arms 5 times each

Butterfly Stretch

• Sit on the mat with the soles of the feet
  together, held with the hands
• Place the elbows can rest on the knees or
  between them
• Gently push down on the knees to flap the
  butterfly wings
• Gently move the head forward to add a back stretch

8
Leg Stretch

• Stand facing a wall with your left arm out to
  support you
• Bend your right leg and grab it with your right
  hand
• Gently press your foot towards your body until
  you feel it stretch the front of your thigh
• Hold this for 10 to 30 seconds, and switch legs
• Place both hands on the wall and one foot near
  the wall

  stretch and hold for 30 seconds

• These simple mobility exercises are designed to
  help children to remain flexible and mobile with
  the busy schedules they have of long hours
  sitting studying, so when they do go out to play
  they are less likely to sustain injuries or have
  sore muscles.
