The Fun Way to Keep Kids Active: Why Holiday Camps Make Movement Exciting!
03 March 2025
Encouraging children to stay active can sometimes feel like a challenge, but when exercise is fun, social, and part of an exciting adventure, it becomes second nature! At SuperCamps, we believe that keeping kids moving is about more than just structured sports – it’s about making physical activity something they genuinely enjoy. That’s why every day at camp is filled with action-packed games, challenges, and activities that get children up and moving, all while having a brilliant time with new friends.
Why It’s Easier to Keep Kids Active at Holiday Camps
One of the biggest benefits of a holiday camp is that physical activity is built into the day – in ways that feel natural and exciting rather than forced. Here’s why children are more likely to stay active at camp:
Being Active with Friends is More Fun! – Running around, playing games, and taking on challenges is always more enjoyable when shared with others. The social aspect of holiday camps keeps kids engaged and motivated to move.
Movement is Part of the Adventure – Whether it’s a scavenger hunt, an obstacle course, or an energetic team game, our activities are designed to get children moving without them even realising they’re exercising!
A Variety of Activities Keeps It Exciting – From sports to creative movement sessions, SuperCamps offers a huge range of active experiences that keep kids engaged. There’s always something new to try!
No Screens, Just Real-World Fun! – At camp, children take a break from screens and get involved in hands-on, interactive activities that encourage movement, play, and creativity.
How We Make Staying Active Fun
At SuperCamps, we carefully plan each day to include a mix of movement-based activities that appeal to all children, whatever their interests or abilities. Some of our favourites include:
Sports & Team Games – From football and tag rugby to mini-Olympics and relay races, our sports sessions help children develop skills while staying active.
Obstacle Courses & Adventure Challenges – Whether they’re navigating tunnels, climbing over barriers, or racing to the finish line, children love taking on physical challenges that feel like an adventure!
Dance & Movement Games – Music, rhythm, and movement come together in fun dance-based activities that boost confidence and coordination.
Outdoor Exploration & Nature Walks – Not all activity has to be high-energy – simply getting outdoors, exploring nature, and going on adventurous walks is a fantastic way to stay active and engaged.
Helping Children Build Healthy Habits for Life
By making movement fun and rewarding, children associate being active with enjoyment, rather than seeing it as something they "have to do". This helps to create positive habits that last beyond camp, making them more likely to stay active in everyday life.
