Energetic Activities for Toddlers & Pre-Schoolers

Posted by the folks at Cow & Lizard on Jan 4th 2016

As soon as toddlers learn how to run - it seems that they are in constant motions.  Full of energy and ready to go!  Channeling that energy into fun activities can be a challenge.  They are developing such skills as jumping, hoping, skipping, balancing and more.  Toys that encourage kids to be active are great for this stage in your child's development.

Manhattan Toy makes a kids flier that is like a mini kite.  Kids can hold on to the stick and run around with the mini kite in tow.  They can do all sorts of acrobats with the flier and not only burn some of their energy, but they can learn how to move the stick around to do tricks with the colorful flier behind them.

Green Toys makes a simple jump rope -  a classic toy that has been around forever.  It doesn't need to be fancy - just a rope with 2 handles.  The Green Toys jump rope comes in 3 colors - green, pink, purple -, has plastic handles and a cotton rope.  An eco-friendly toy that is made from recycled plastic milk jugs here in the USA.
