Explorations
Engages in an array of creative movement and gross motor activities. Each week will bring equipment and activities, creating a playspace that may include soft climbers, hoppers, ball pit, climbing structure, push/pull toys, tents, tunnels, balancing equipment, scooters, balls (various textures and sizes), gymnastics shapes and much more. Your coach will also lead a group activity to encourage participants to work together and provide social interaction.  Explorations encourages gross motor skills, hand/foot/eye coordination, balancing & walking, physical activity, and provide a whole lot of fun! 

Literacize
Knucklebones’ Literacize consists of reading aloud an athletically inspired book and then creating an array of athletic activities that coincide with the book’s theme. For example, we’ll transform Three Billy Goats Gruff into building a bridge using an array of unique equipment for the participants to walk across and then collect food without running into the troll. Or Pete the Cat and Head to Toe, each week the books will include movement, storytelling and allow the Knucklebones coach to showcase a diverse array of equipment.  Through this program several significant learning goals may be acquired:

• A joy of reading can be instilled
• A fun and playful approach to being fit and a healthy lifestyle 
• A diverse array of books provides children with age-appropriate, educational subjects
• Motor & social skills can be enhanced
