BEYOND Fit Kids
What does BEYOND Fit Kids have going on in August?
Join Us Around the Camp Fire to Sing Along this August!
This month we are gathering our tent, fire wood, sleeping bags, and most importantly the marshmallows for our hike up Mount Beyond at Camp TUMBLEBUS! From Singing on the fire log, to climbing up Mount Beyond, and skipping over the rocky river, we are learning so much about our survival skills! You can believe that Teddy has taught us so much already. Teddy is teaching us how to build a fire, educating us about the different plants to be aware of on our hikes, and sharing thrilling stories around the camp fire. Because there isn’t a grocery store around here with fresh water or food, Teddy has set up new gathering skills for everyone to master, in order to keep our bodies strong and healthy while we are making our adventure through the woods. We continue gaining movement skills through rhythm, speed, and body control through lifting our bodies up and over the poisonous plants, crossing the rapid rivers, and learning how to play instruments to sing along with around camp fire songs.Teddy sure does love hearing all of the different questions our friends ask about surviving in woods. Teddy said where questions are asked knowledge will Grow!

What Skills are We Learning this Month?
Here are a few skills we'll be covering this month!
- Building our coordination skills by moving and engaging multiple parts of our body at the same time. Such as using our core to pull up our legs and arm up in the air at the same time. The key to this is taking deep breaths throughout so there is plenty of oxygen flowing through out muscles.
- Using our strong legs to climb up Mount BEYOND while engaging our upper body to keep our body’s up right
- Developing rhythm and learning the different sounds through using instruments to follow the beat of the music during our campfire sing a long.
