There are so many benefits to toddler football but, within this article, we are going to focus on our top five benefits. And let you know where you can find your nearest toddler football so your child can benefit too.
1. Helps To Develop Motor Skills
We are going to start with a big one – our toddler football will help your child to develop their motor skills. Motor skills are really important as they help your child with basic movements. You will see it very early on in your child’s life as they learn to sit up, hold their head steady, crawl etc.
Your child can join our football classes as early as 6 months old and we will help them to develop these early motor skills. As they grow up and move up the classes, they will learn balance and coordination, along with football skills.
2. Helps To Develop Cognitive Skills
Our toddler football will also help your child develop their cognitive skills. Cognitive skills are the skills that enable children to think, pay attention, process information and remember things.
Your child will learn how to do all of these skills within our classes, along with developing their communication skills.
3. Increases Confidence
Taking part in our toddler football will help to increase your child’s confidence.
Firstly because you will be with them every step of the way, cheering them on. Secondly, because we will help each and every one of your child’s wins but, if there is an area that is finding challenging, we will help them to overcome these challenges. And finally, learning football skills (along with all the other skills) and overcoming challenges will show them that they can achieve their goals.
4. Helps Them To Make Friends
By coming to our toddler football, your child will be around children who are the same or a similar age. They will get to know children through attending our classes and, as they get older, they will begin working in pairs and small groups.
Being around children their own age is a great way to make friends in itself but, with our toddler football, they will also be learning social skills which will help them in our classes, in school and throughout their life.
5. Teach Them About Teamwork
Along with helping them with social skills and making friends, our toddler football will also teach them teamwork and cooperation.
As your child gets older and moves up the classes, they will begin working in pairs and in small groups with other children. Your child will learn how to be patient and cooperate with the other children.
