⭐️ Welcome to Week 6! ⭐️

We're thrilled to be diving into volleyball and climbing🏔️

This week's sport is volleyball, 🏐 perfect for improving hand-eye coordination and working together as a team.

We're also focusing on climbing, an amazing full-body activity. 🪜 Climbing challenges the kids to use their strength, balance, and problem-solving skills, building muscle and enhancing spatial awareness. It also boosts their confidence and resilience as they learn to navigate vertical spaces.

We have obstacle courses with climbing elements! We always follow the same weekly pattern to help the kids thrive.

Come join the fun!

❤️💛💙

🌈 Active Autism Bootcamp – Week 6 🌈

Week 6 is all about movement, awareness, and reacting to what's happening around us ⚡️

We begin with our familiar Follow the Leader warm-up to get our bodies moving and reinforce routine. This helps everyone feel settled and ready for the session.

Our first game is Ultimate Dodgeball (Modified) 🔵
Played inside a square, the ball is rolled along the ground rather than thrown. This keeps the game safe, predictable, and fun.

⭐️ Children move around the square avoiding the ball
⭐️ If tagged, they complete 3 fun exercise reps
⭐️ Then they join the outside and help roll the ball

This builds:
💪 Spatial awareness
💪 Reaction time
💪 Confidence moving in a group

Next we move into Pickleball 🎾
Using simple rules and soft equipment, children practise:
💫 Hitting the ball back and forth
💫 Controlling movement and direction
💫 Working with a partner

The focus is on keeping the rally going, not scoring points. 🎯

We finish with Balloon Keep-Up, followed by Just Dance, and our calming stretching routine. 🎈🕺

✨ This week's focus:
🌳 Awareness of space and others
🌳 Reaction and movement control
🌳 Partner play and cooperation
🌳 Confidence in new activities

Week 5 was absolutely fantastic and we can’t wait to see what Week 6 brings!! ❤️💛💙

🌈 Active Autism Bootcamp - Week 5 🌈

Week 5 brings big energy, fast movement, and lots of laughter as we introduce two exciting games.

We begin with our familiar Follow the Leader warm-up to prepare our bodies and reinforce routine. Predictable movement helps everyone settle in and get ready for the session.

Our first activity is Human Hungry Hippos. Children start by completing a quick exercise before running into the playing area to collect one ball and return it to their team. This fast-paced game encourages:
🏃‍♂️ Running and agility
🏃‍♂️ Quick decision-making
🏃‍♂️ Turn-taking
🏃‍♂️ Team cooperation

The goal is simple — collect as many balls as possible while cheering on your teammates.

Next we move into Basketball Shooting. 🏀
Children practise shooting at different targets with options for:
✨ Low hoops
✨ Medium hoops
✨ High hoops

We also adjust distances so everyone can succeed. Parents and facilitators support the kids and celebrate every basket. 👍🏼

To finish the session, we transition into Balloon Keep-Up, enjoy some Just Dance time, and then settle our bodies with our stretching and breathing routine. 💃 🕺 🪩

This week's focus:
💁🏻‍♂️High-energy movement
💁🏻‍♂️Coordination and control
💁🏻‍♂️Confidence trying new skills

We can’t wait to see you this week at Active Autism!

🌈 Active Autism Bootcamp – Week 4 🌈

Week 4 focuses on teamwork, strategy, and fun competition – with parents joining in the action!

We begin with our familiar Follow the Leader warm-up to help everyone settle into the session and get their bodies moving. The routine helps build confidence and prepares the group for the games ahead.

Our first game is Bootcamp Noughts & Crosses ⭕❌. Kids and parents work in teams to race to the board and place their marker. Each turn includes a quick movement challenge before placing the piece. The goal is simple – get three in a row!

Parents are encouraged to play along but make sure the kids come out on top, keeping the focus on encouragement, participation, and fun.

Next we move into Bean Bag Toss 🎯. Children take turns tossing bean bags into targets placed at different distances. This activity builds:

✋ Hand-eye coordination
✋ Focus and body control
✋ Confidence trying new challenges
✋ Celebrating effort over perfection

After the games, we transition into Balloon Keep-Up, followed by Just Dance, before finishing with our calming stretching and breathing routine.

✨ This week's focus:
💙Teamwork with parents
💙 Problem-solving and strategy
💙 Confidence through playful competition
💙 Encouraging each other

It’s Week 4 and we’re heading into some exciting new activities!

This week’s sport is tennis, 🎾 great for developing hand-eye coordination and quick reflexes.

Our movement focus is swinging and hanging – think monkey bars, swings, and lots of upper body strength work! These activities are brilliant for building arm and grip strength, balance, and spatial awareness. We’ve got some ripper games and challenges lined up to keep it super engaging!

Sticking to a consistent weekly routine helps everyone feel safe and ready to shine. Come join us for a week full of swinging, hanging, and smashing some tennis balls! ✨✨✨
