Active Movement for Children

Since becoming a dad and working on DIYFather.com I have learnt a lot about babies, parenting and sleep deprivation. Most of it was all new to me and at times it seemed a bit overwhelming to try and do "the right thing" (whatever that may be).

Fortunately very early on we got in contact with a government agency called SPARC who have put together a lot of material about helping children under five develop their fundamental movement skills.

The "Active Movement" material has become a great source of inspiration when playing with my son. When I talked to other dads about it I was surprised to find that they hadn't heard of it. DIYFather.com is all about bringing the message to the people, so over the next 8 weeks we'll post some of the key messages from the SPARC Active Movement material here. Hope you'll like it.
