Unlock the Power of Movement for Early Childhood Development!
At Kids Heart Pilates, we believe that the foundation for a healthy, confident, and happy child starts with movement. Our Early Years Movement Curriculum is designed to support children’s holistic development through fun, engaging activities that educators can easily integrate into daily routines.
This comprehensive 40-week program is created by Lizzy Dawson, a Paediatric Exercise Physiologist, and is informed by feedback from over 40 childcare centres that we’ve partnered with this year. It offers a structured approach to motor, sensory, cognitive, and emotional skill development, giving every child the tools to thrive physically and mentally.
Why Choose Our Early Years Movement Curriculum?
- Holistic Development Focus
Our curriculum is built around the key pillars of child development:
- Motor Skills: Helping children develop balance, coordination, and control through exciting movement-based games.
- Sensory & Stimulation: Engaging their senses to enhance focus, curiosity, and creativity.
- Cognitive Skills: Using movement to encourage problem-solving and critical thinking.
- Communication & Social Emotional Skills: Encouraging teamwork, sharing, and emotional regulation, with a focus on speech and language development.
- Fun & Engaging Lessons Every Week
Each week, educators will receive 2-4 new movement activities tailored to the developmental needs of children. Whether it’s hopping like kangaroos or balancing like flamingos, each activity is designed to spark joy, curiosity, and a love for movement while also targeting specific developmental areas.

Our program takes the guesswork out of planning. We provide a “done-for-you, do-it-yourself” approach, equipping educators with everything they need to confidently lead movement sessions.
