Skillsprouts is a fun and easy way to keep your child moving — at home, no fancy gear needed. Explore 60 playful movement lessons at your own pace, designed by a real PE teacher for homeschool families like yours.
Bring PE class to your living room with 60 creative games. Easy to follow, fun to play, and perfect for helping your child stay active and develop essential motor skills.
Each lesson includes 2–3 short videos: an instruction video, a movement demo, and sometimes tips for parents.
Whether your child is bursting with energy or needs a little extra push, we’ve got something for every level.
Because kids don’t need more screens or worksheets.
They need to move, laugh, and learn — all at the same time. Skillsprouts is built on proven movement education from real-life PE teachers. Every activity is fun and purposeful — helping your child grow physically, emotionally, and even academically.
When your child plays, they’re not just burning energy — they’re building the skills they’ll use for life. Catching a soft ball, hopping on one foot, crawling through a tunnel... each of these playful moments trains their body to move with confidence and control.
Strong motor skills are essential for everything from tying shoes to joining a sports team. But even more importantly, they build your child’s self-esteem. Studies show that children who develop solid motor foundations early on are more active, resilient, and socially engaged as they grow (Li et al., 2021; Wu et al., 2021).
Unlike scattered online videos or random Pinterest ideas, this course follows a clear path — created by a physical education expert — to help your child build these skills in a fun, low-pressure way. No drills. Just movement that feels like play.
🧠 Even 15 minutes a day can lead to lasting improvements in balance, coordination, and confidence.
As a homeschool parent, you’ve probably noticed it: when your child moves, they learn better. Physical activity increases blood flow to the brain, helps release built-up tension, and creates the focus needed to absorb new information.
Whether you're transitioning between lessons, diffusing restlessness, or looking for a midday reset, this course offers playful movement breaks that activate the body and refresh the mind. Activities like balancing games, obstacle paths, or movement-based memory games aren’t just fun — they also strengthen focus, memory, and problem-solving skills (Lubans et al., 2016; Capio et al., 2024).
What makes this course different? Every game is designed to support cognitive development and fit seamlessly into a homeschool routine. No extra prep, no complicated setup — just brain-boosting movement, ready when you are.
📚 Studies consistently link physical activity to better attention, faster learning, and improved academic performance.
One of the greatest gifts of homeschooling is the chance to grow alongside your child. This course isn’t just about helping your child move — it’s about giving you both a chance to connect.
In every activity, you’ll be right there beside them — encouraging, laughing, playing. Whether you’re crawling under cushions or racing to a finish line, these shared moments build trust, joy, and emotional connection.
And because the games are easy to follow and fun to repeat, they naturally become rituals — those small, happy pockets in the day where learning meets love.
💛 Connection grows stronger when you move together — and memories are made when you play side by side.
You don’t need a PE degree, expensive gear, or a gym to make movement part of your homeschool rhythm. This course was created for real families, with real schedules and real living rooms.
The activities take just 10–20 minutes, use simple household items, and can be done indoors or outside. Whether you're starting the day with a burst of energy, using it as a midday brain break, or winding down after lessons — it’s flexible and easy to follow.
Designed by an experienced movement educator, every activity is purposeful, fun, and adaptable. You’ll always know what to do, how to do it, and why it matters — without needing to plan ahead or search online for ideas.
⏱️ Even small bursts of consistent movement can lead to big improvements in your child’s physical, emotional, and cognitive development (Public Health England, 2020).
The Netherlands might be a small country — just 17 million people — but it consistently ranks among the top performers at the Olympic Games. At the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris, the Dutch team finished 6th overall, winning 15 gold, 7 silver, and 12 bronze medals. And it’s not just in one area — the Netherlands excels across a wide range of sports, from soccer and hockey to cycling, swimming, rowing, and speed skating.
One key reason: the Dutch approach to physical education. Unlike many systems, it doesn’t just focus on athletic talent — it helps all children develop strong foundational movement skills through structured, playful, and inclusive lessons, starting from an early age. Physical education in Dutch primary schools is taught by trained specialists, with clear developmental goals and a focus on fun, not competition (Fransen et al., 2014; van der Mars & van der Kooij, 2021).
This course is built on those same principles. It brings the Dutch PE philosophy into your home — not as a copy of school lessons, but as a playful, practical way to help your child grow stronger, more capable, and more connected through movement.
🇳🇱 Dutch research shows that structured, early movement programs lead to better motor skills, higher activity levels, and improved emotional well-being — benefits that last far beyond childhood.
