Winter days can be long, chilly, and full of extra wiggles! βοΈ Thatβs why we created Keep Them Moving β a simple, playful way to help kids stay active without needing fancy equipment or tons of prep.
Each day features a fun, indoor-friendly movement activity designed to get little bodies moving, energy flowing, and smiles popping up all month long. ππΊ From silly dances to animal moves and cozy winter challenges, these activities are perfect for busy Hive Parents looking for easy wins during winter break and beyond.
One day. One activity. A whole lot of happy movement. πβ¨

Hereβs to a month of happy hearts, busy feet, and buzzing smiles. ππΎ
