Words from the Director - Happy Hour for Morning Physical Activities

「哇~有投籃！」「好多樣哦！」「看起來好好玩呢。」大班孩子像發現新大陸似的，興奮的說著。

週二晨光體能活動時間，老師們一起合作，準備各式器材，排放成巡迴狀，除了活動室，還延伸到前門廣場，投籃架擺放在廣場上，特別顯眼，很吸睛。

活動進行前，小孩們先集合，由負責的老師做關卡的介紹、提醒注意事項，請小朋友示範後，接著開放大家一起進行；四十分鐘大肌肉活動時間，小朋友依循著器材的擺放，一關關的進行，一次、兩次、三次…；累了，稍事休息、擦擦汗、喝口水再繼續；加上配樂，活動室熱鬧無比，充滿了生氣與活力。

一早就能活動筋骨，盡情地動一動身體，呼應課程身體動作與健康領域能力-1.靈活展現基本動作技能並能維護自身安全。2.擁有健康的身體及良好的生活習慣。3.喜歡運動與樂於展現動作創意。

Physical activity is closely related to health promotion, especially in childhood where a sitting lifestyle is becoming more and more prevalent, which will inevitably affect a healthy lifestyle in the future. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a habit of physical activity in early childhood. Physical activity affects the secretion of norepinephrine, serotonin, dopa saddle and endorphins, which are closely related to memory, emotion and learning motivation. Children with good physical mobility not only have more energy to explore learning or complete self-care activities such as hygiene and health care, but also have more physical strength to enjoy They also have more physical strength to enjoy the learning outcomes or to deal with emergencies. Therefore, for the overall improvement of children's health, it is important to prioritize the establishment of basic "body movement" skills.

"Body movement" refers to the flexible mastery of autonomous body movements. The development of body movement skills between the ages of 2 and 6 years old emphasizes the importance of having flexible and agile movements, and good physical fitness, which will lay the foundation for a safe and active healthy lifestyle. This is the foundation for a safe, active and healthy lifestyle in the future. Therefore, the Body Movement and Health domain focuses on helping children experience and explore correct body postures, respond safely to changes in their environment, and promote interest and endurance in participating in activities.

隨著時間和經驗，孩子們的運動能力不斷的在進步，特別是新生和小小孩，從不喜歡、排斥到慢慢跟在後，到可自己一人，鼓勵和放手，就能看見孩子的成長。

歆渝媽媽說：台北的朋友好羨慕哦，他們讓小孩去做體能活動，一次得花500元，仁和的小朋友好幸福哦！」

當天舉辦國慶活動，大家開開心心的一起慶祝國家的生日。

I wish you all a happy holiday, peace and joy.
