Let Off Steam
There are many advantages to giving children the time to Let Off Steam and play actively. By releasing their natural energy they are maintaining fitness, reducing the risk of obesity, and developing physical skills, such as balance and co-ordination. An educational benefit for young children is that their large physical play movements contribute to the finer co-ordination later used in writing.
Physical movement and activity for children, as with adults, is important as it helps alertness and maintains well-being. Children also learn to develop their own judgments about taking risks and, through interaction in active play and games, develop communication, mediation and problem-solving skills.
Our Let Off Steam range of toys and accessories encourages children to be active at all ages, from birth to ten years of age.
The earlier a child starts being active, the greater their chances of being active in later years – and as an adult.
