Finn ‘helps’ Daddy exercise in the garden, at least once a week. Watching him train with Liam makes me laugh every time, it never gets old!

Method
SAFETY: I would recommend wearing proper footwear rather than crocs. As you can see they made Finn a bit unsteady.
Warming up by running on the spot
Twisting with the medicine ball
Star jumps
Push ups
Squats with the medicine ball
NB. We don’t have a children’s medicine ball so Finn is using a dog toy. Use whatever household items are available to you.
Jumping lunges
More press-ups
DfES Early Learning Goals (2017)
Physical development
ELG 04 – Moving and handling:
Children show good control and co-ordination in large and small movements. They move confidently in a range of ways, safely negotiating space.
ELG 05 – Health and self-care:
Children know the importance for good health of physical exercise, and a healthy diet, and talk about ways to keep healthy and safe.
