Skogsbäckens and Stenportens preschools in Lidköping are part of the network for preschools in Lidköping municipality. Educators are invited to regular meetings where the focus is on increasing knowledge and exchanging experiences, all to create more movement for children in preschool.
One of several initiatives that Skogsbäckens and Stenportens preschool have done is that they have jointly organized a movement race in the spirit of "Make a Move"!
The children started by warming up together with a banana and a Dalmatian! They then had to run a course where they challenged their balance and had to jump and run. There was a course for the smaller children and a course for the older children. After the finish line, the children were offered fruit, water and a certificate!
"The children showed great joy in movement and it felt like the start of a new tradition. Your lecture was inspiring and we can see that the children are now asking for movement races in outdoor play." says Emelie Olsson, preschool teacher at Stenportens preschool.
