Gross motor skills are essential for children ages 2-4, as these foundational movements enable them to perform everyday physical tasks and set the stage for lifelong physical development. Activities such as running, jumping, throwing, and balancing help build strength, coordination, and confidence in young children. Research shows that early mastery of gross motor skills is linked to better cognitive development, social interaction, and overall physical health. For preschool-aged children, these activities not only foster independence but also provide opportunities to explore their environment and engage meaningfully with peers.

At Big Flex, we partner with early childcare centers, daycares, and preschools to provide weekly physical education classes tailored to preschool-aged children. These sessions emphasize the development of gross motor skills through engaging, age-appropriate activities. Our curriculum also integrates collaboration and team-building exercises, fostering essential social skills in a fun and supportive environment. By focusing on gross motor development, we aim to help children build a strong foundation for physical and social growth while encouraging an active lifestyle from an early age.
