This children’s day, set your child on the path of staying healthy. Exercise at home for kids is important not just to maintain their immunity but also to keep them from getting bored.

Here Are 5 Fun Exercises For Kids To Do Indoors.

1. Dancing 

Parenting blogger and author, Dipika Singh, enrolled her daughter in an online dance class to keep her active. If your child enjoys dance too, you can get them to join a dance class or pick a dance workout online. 

2. Hot Seat Squats 

Squats can help your child build endurance and strength. To make this exercise fun for them, keep a low seat or stool behind them and play a game. They have to squat without touching the seat, or pretend the ‘hot seat’ will burn their behinds. 

3. Crab stand

The crab stand or crab walk is a silly exercise for kids that improve score strength. Your child has to sit with the feet in front and hands behind them. Then lifting up their hips off the floor they can either stay in that position or try to walk. 

4. Skipping

Skipping is another fun exercise for kids at home. It increases heart rate, exercises the whole body, and improves core strength. It is also a good exercise for their mind as it uses both the left brain and right brain.
