Rainbow
Rope Routines
For every child, a healthy eating and exercise program is important
in assisting their development. A rope of any Rainbow colour chosen
by the child will suffice. Simple skipping for 5 minutes morning and
afternoon is all that is required. The child can be encouraged to add more
interesting variations and use a different coloured rope for each routine.
The aim is for each child to experience skipping
for up to five minutes
in a session to improve cardio-vascular functioning, muscle
tone and
eye hand co-ordination. For groups, single ropes of every colour can be distributed,
which makes for a colourful display when in action. Longer ropes for team games
and challenges
make for social interactions as well as exercise.
The aim is still for the 5
minute experience.
