Movement Games
with Nikoleta Xenarioy
Movement games for young children aged 2 to 4 are playful activities designed to support their physical and emotional development through joyful exploration. At this age, children learn best through movement and sensory experiences, so games often include running, jumping, balancing, crawling, and dancing. These activities help build motor skills, coordination, and spatial awareness, while also encouraging imagination and social interaction. Through songs, rhythms, simple instructions, and repetition, movement games create a safe and fun environment where toddlers can explore their bodies and the world around them
