A magical moving ride

Did you know that children under 5 years old should be moving to get slightly out of breath for 180 minutes (3 hours) a day?

Following the success of our summer Healthy Movers events, we are running four new Saturday Healthy Movers sessions at the creche at 1st Place Children and Parents' Centre on 14 Sept, 21 Sept, 28 Sept and 5 Oct at 11.00am - 12.30pm.

From a rowing boat to a train ride and a trip to space, join us for a magical ride as we get you and your family moving! We will be:

• Going on a gentle bus ride, walking as we chase some bubbles then driving in a big yellow car. I wonder who we will see...
• Boarding the train as we visit some exciting places to find some shells, monkeys and pigs.
• Row, row, rowing our boat as we meet some interesting animals but watch out for the crocodile!
• Flying to the moon. Who would like to be in a flying saucer? How are we going to stop ourselves floating away? Can you do the Floaty Pokey?

All the sessions are free and no booking is needed, simply turn up on the day. There will be regular drink breaks and a healthy snack.

Sam Bodmer, Sports and Physical Activity Officer (Southwark Environment and Leisure) will also be paying us a visit on 5 October to offer more fun tips and advice on keeping your child active.
