No games on tv? No problem! The offseason is a sneaky good time to build your kid’s interest in football before the pressure gets real this fall 🏈
1️⃣🧠 Use the offseason to build up their understanding.
It’s hard for kids to latch on when they don’t know what’s happening - start small with concepts like downs and scoring. The Future Fans Football box uses stories, games, and other activities to introduce the basics in short sessions that feel like play but work like magic!
2️⃣📆 Turn it into a weekly dad-kid ritual.
Whether your favorite team plays on Saturdays or Sundays, you know that weekly anticipation is part of the fun. Get your kid in on the ritual by setting aside 10-15 minutes every weekend for “football time with Dad”, whether it’s running routes in the yard or reading the next chapter of the Future Fans Football storybook. By the time next season kicks off, spending that time with you is already a part of their schedule!
3️⃣👕 Create team identity before the season.
Build emotional buy-in by dressing up in your team’s colors (fashion show, anyone?), making signs, inventing chants, and showing them all off to friends and family. By involving your kid in the creation of these common fan activities, you’ll build real excitement that you can practice over and over!
Turn the offseason into your biggest fan advantage by choosing connection and play as the tools to unlock understanding and excitement. The Future Fans Football box can help you get there, so when fall finally arrives, the games become your shared payoff 🫶🏻
