Stargrower Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 Does anyone use Action Kids, the physical development programme by Val Sabin? If you do, could you tell me how old the children are and which version you use? Would you recommend it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarlettangel Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 (edited) We use ACTIVATE in the nursery which is by Val Sabin. The children love it!! I know reception use it too, and when the school had the package I think we took it on as a whole school thing. We like it as a staff also Edited August 10, 2013 by Scarlettangel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 We use Actions Kids - the children and staff love it. The Actions kids song it brilliant and I often catch myself singing it after PE! I am in a school nursery, so 3-4 year olds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sn0wdr0p Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 My son age 10 does ACTIVATE at school every morning and afternoon before lessons start for about 5 minutes. He has just told me only the juniors do it. I don't know anymore than that though and he is not willing to share any more info because he is glued to minecraft on his kindle.

Stargrower Posted August 11, 2013 Author Share Posted August 11, 2013 Thanks everyone. I am thinking of buying Active Kids 500 and just wanted to see what people thought. Thanks for you replies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flowlow Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 I have never heard of these before after quick internet search all looks good but what sort of things do you do, I mean there are so many different physical programmes out there and they all sound good but I wonder what makes this programme better?

Can't see an easier level. Is this one ok for nursery? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stargrower Posted August 11, 2013 Author Share Posted August 11, 2013 I think ACTIVATE is aimed at school age children up to 11. They use it before morning and afternoon lessons. If you search for Active Kids Val Sabin you will find programmes for babies upwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarlettangel Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 We use the Activate "frogs" cd and its fine for nursery! It's quite an old set and can't recall right now if its level 5 but t might well be. The children enjoy the programme and every 2 weeks it alters slightly, ie adding something new in and taking something else out. I think if you google the programme you can watch examples! Is it the same as the Active Kids 500 programme? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
