Physical education sometimes gets lost in the busy homeschooler’s day, however, exercising our bodies is important. According to the American Association of Pediatrics, a child should be getting 30 minutes of exercise a day, and some sources suggest that the minimum amount should be closer to 60 minutes. Get your kids moving with these 10 ways to incorporate physical education into your homeschool routine.

1. Play indoor appropriate games. For example, blow up a balloon and play catch with it. Take a step back after every catch and see how many times you can catch the balloon without it touching the ground.

2. Make it a priority to devote enough time to swimming so your children learn how to be safe in the water.

3. Take a break to enjoy a playground in your neighborhood park or your own backyard.

4. Organize a local physical education class for your kids and local homeschool group.

5. Join a fitness center and attend exercise classes and workout opportunities for you and your children.

6. Enroll your child in a dance studio. Dance encourages fitness, flexibility, and coordination.

7. In many states, public schools allow homeschool students to participate in physical education classes or extra-curricular activities.

8. Participate in youth sports associations. Take advantage of a local seasonal program in soccer, basketball, football, softball, baseball, volleyball, hockey, or another sport.

9. A daily stretching routine can increase your flexibility and fitness level, while preparing your body and mind for a busy day ahead or providing relaxation after a day of homeschooling.

10. Subscribe to video tutorials on YouTube for exercise moves and in-house activities.
