With schools being shut in the wake of COVID-19 pandemic, Sportz Village Schools, India's sports education organisation, has launched a ‘Play At Home’ program.
The ‘Play At Home’ program is designed in a manner that will help the children to be active, healthy and happy while they are at home.
The program contains age-appropriate activities and tasks that are helpful to maintain the physical, emotional, as well as the mental well-being, of the children.
The programme, which is accessible on the Sportz Village website, is a 30-day long calendar of activities with fitness charts and instructional videos that the children can follow to remain fit and more importantly have fun.
The parents can also be a part of this program by observing/monitoring their child during the activities, as well as performing, a few of the activities along with them. Additionally, the program also includes activities to keep the children mentally active with sports quizzes (SLAM), puzzles (Brain Games), as well as provide recommendations, for sports-specific inspirational movies that the children can watch and enjoy.
Commenting on this initiative, Saumil Majmudar, co-founder, CEO and Managing Director of Sportz Village said “It is extremely important to keep our children fit and happy during this trying time. Through the ‘Play At Home’ program, children will not only be fit, active, healthy and happy but also would get an opportunity to do fun activities along with their parents.”
Sportz Village’s ‘Play At Home’ initiative has also been applauded and supported by many of its partner schools as well.
