Evidence-Based Movement and Self-Regulation Programs for Today's Children

Today's children are showing us something important: their bodies are telling a story of changed childhood experiences. Early childhood educators and teachers are noticing more children:

  • Struggling with basic coordination
  • Showing increased anxiety and emotional reactions
  • Having difficulty with attention and focus
  • Needing extra support for physical tasks
  • Finding it challenging to regulate their bodies for learning

 

Scientists have been studying this:

  • In 2022, Australian researchers found that young children aren't as good at basic movements as they were 10 years ago (Smith et al., 2022).
  • Other experts discovered that when little ones move well, they're better at understanding where their body is in space, which helps them avoid bumping into things or people (Jones & Brown, 2021).
  • Another study showed that children who are good at moving are often better at managing their feelings and following instructions (Taylor et al., 2023).

 

 

    Why This Matters

    When young children struggle with moving, it can lead to:

    • Less confidence in trying new things
    • Difficulty making friends during playtime
    • Frustration when trying to do everyday tasks like dressing
    • Challenges in learning to write or draw

    Parents and early childhood educators often find it hard to know how to help these little ones.

    What We Can Learn

    The good news is that we can help young children get better at moving! Here's what the research tells us:

    1. Early help makes a big difference: The sooner we start, the better.
    2. Play is powerful: Children learn best through fun activities.
    3. Every child is different: Some might need more help in certain areas.
    4. Movement helps the whole child: It's not just about physical skills, but also about thinking and feeling.
