🌧️ 5 Ways to Keep Kids Moving — Even on Rainy Days

Because movement doesn’t stop when the skies open up ☔
Here’s how to turn those grey NZ days into moments full of fun, laughter, and (just a bit of) mess.

🌦️ 1. Bring the Playground Indoors

Turn your living room into a movement zone!
Lay out cushions, tape balance lines on the floor, or create a mini obstacle course.
Not only does it burn energy — it builds balance, coordination, and giggles galore.

💃 2. Family Dance-Offs (No Rules, Just Moves)

Turn up their favourite playlist and let loose!
Dancing is one of the easiest ways to keep kids active inside — it boosts confidence and burns off that endless energy.

Extra points for silly moves and bonus spins.
(Hint: stretchy shorts make for the best freestyle sessions.)

🌈 3. Get Crafty with Movement Challenges

Combine creativity and movement — like “design your own warm-up” or “make up a new sport.”
All you need is imagination (and maybe a soft ball or rolled-up socks).

They’ll be moving without even realising it.

🌧️ 4. Brave the Rain (Yes, Really)

Who says rain has to stop play?
Grab a towel, embrace the puddles, and let them feel the freedom of getting a bit muddy.

That’s what washable fabrics are for 😉
Our Outplay gear is made to handle the splashes — and the big smiles that come with them.

💪 5. Stretch, Breathe, Recharge

Movement doesn’t always have to be fast.
A simple stretch session or yoga flow helps kids calm down, refocus, and stay body-aware — especially when they’ve been cooped up inside.

It’s movement, mindfulness, and magic — all rolled into one.
