Active Play with Coach Carson

Active Play is a Reggio inspired physical activity program for Grades 2-6 (ages 7-12).

Children will develop their visual and spatial awareness and depth perception of their bodies. They will also participate in activity and movement through skill-based, play-based, and challenge-based programming.

Coach Carson inspires physical exploration and movement discovery through home-based physical activity with regular bursts of activity such as crawling, jumping, or running. Children can join Coach Carson on a journey of body, movement, and physical sense-making through the use of rules-based games which may be social or solitary in a playful context.
