The importance of sports and games in school encompasses more than just the benefit of physical activity. It increases self-esteem and mental alertness making school sports and games necessary for every school-age child. Sports teaches students the value of humility. Sport has psychological benefits for children and adolescents and teaches them important life skills.

Developmental benefits

Playing sports helps children learn to control their emotions and channel negative feelings in a positive way. It also helps children to develop patience and understand that it can take a lot of practice to improve both their physical skills and what they do in school.

Emotional benefits

Physical activity has been shown to stimulate chemicals in the brain that makes you feel better. So, playing sports regularly improves children’s overall emotional well-being.

Social benefits

Playing in a team helps children develop many social skills they will need for life. It also gives children a sense of belonging. It helps them make new friends and builds their social circle. Sport also teaches them about teamwork.

Children love engaging with music and movement in early childhood education. It helps them express their feelings and emotions, learn to work in groups and develop their self-confidence and imagination.

Interacting with music and movement in early childhood education is part of a child’s everyday life. At Steadfast International, our music and dance classes add colour and fullness to the early childhood curriculum and to a child’s daily experiences. Music and movement provide children with so many benefits. Our music classes help children develop skills such as cognitive growth, problem-solving, self-expression and social development. Without music and movement in early childhood education, a child’s learning is incomplete.
