Move Crew is a programme developed with the expertise of teachers and physical activity specialists, elite athletes, kids and coaches. Each week sets a new mission, with activities each day to complete.
Kids activities
Keep them busy and active
Kids should aim for 60 minutes of activity each day. We know that may feel difficult right now, that's why we've put together these fun ideas to get them active. There's also some just to keep them entertained!
We'd love to see what you get up to. Please post on Facebook and tag us @PlacesLeisure using #NoPlacesLikeHome
