Everything you need to know for remote teaching, learning and parenting

As we enter a new world of remote teaching, learning and parenting, it is essential to work together. We have put together three free webinars from teachers, parents and coaches on ways to plan engaging lessons as well as focusing on the mental health and wellbeing of everyone involved.

Please feel free to watch the three webinars. A little blurb is included below about each webinar and what you will get out of each one, as well as that we have decided to offer our online learning system which has 700 plus movement and educational games. Each game has its own explanation videos and printable PDF’s, perfect for teachers to send home to students and also for parents to use with students. The site also has another 50 professional development courses like these three that all come with certificates to add to your professional development records.

More so than ever staying active and building human connection in a safe way is critical while remote teaching and learning is taking place. Our website, the Fitness Games Zone is leading the way with ideas to achieve these challenges for teachers, coaches and parents. When you go to pay use the code word ‘KINDNESS2020‘, and you will get 50% off your membership. If you select the department access, then ten accounts will be created for your school, home or workplace. This is a steal at 50% off.

Australian bushfire relief fundraiser

An appeal from Dale Sidebottom and Kyle Wood:

Currently, Australia is experiencing some of it’s worst bush fires in history.

Thousands of people have been uprooted and evacuated from their homes. Lives have been lost, uncountable homes have been lost, not to mention over 1 billion wild animals, pets and livestock that have been affected.

Firefighters from all around Australia and even the USA are being flown in to help local firefighters who are beyond exhausted from weeks of firefighting. Most of these firefighters are volunteers, away from their jobs and families to help others.

For an idea of how big these fires are, they spread across all states and the smoke plumes are visible from space.

Creative play & movement mission cards have arrived

After ten months of crazy work, we now have our three full sets of Daily Mission Cards all in sets of plastic matte finished cards. The quality is going to blow your mind. All sets are perfect to use in the classroom, at home or in the workplace. As well as being the greatest ever KK Christmas present.

Welcome to our world of happiness, play & kindness!

We offer three sets of Daily Mission Cards, they are the “Happiness & Kindness Deck” which is focussed on random acts of kindness, empathy and self-appreciation. The second deck, “Creative Play & Movement” deck consists of 49 different play missions, and the third desk “Function” deck is designed for meetings, functions and social gatherings with challenges to assist break the ice, get conversation flowing or help alleviate social anxiety.

Creative Play & Movement Missions

Child-led imaginative play reflects real life, it teaches everything from social skills to numeracy, dexterity to emotional and physical balance. Climbing, running, dancing; in this movement, a healthy sense of freedom and of moving towards one’s goals is experienced. The older we get, the less we play.
If you struggle to fit play into your day, choose one of our 50 Daily Mission Cards to nurture your inner child.

The deck holds seven different types of play which all represent a different colour of the rainbow. Each colour is made up of seven missions making a total of 49 missions in the deck. The 50th card is the special rainbow magic card which can be completed as the last card in the deck or however you choose to use the missions.

The cards are designed to offer ideas and activities to encourage those who use

them to take a daily dose of play into their lives! They aim to act as a catalyst for activity – not to be the only way to play but ones that will guide and help shape time with family, friends, work colleagues and of course your inner child!

Function & Events Mission Deck

Sometimes it’s challenging to break the ice, to get the conversation flowing and make people feel comfortable at functions. This is a problem that we have seen so often at conferences, meetings, workshops, weddings and parties. Social anxiety, stress or a number of emotions can become overwhelming when you walk into a room filled with new people, so we designed this super engaging function deck which will allow you to create a good vibe for everyone that walks through your function door.

Depending on the size of the group, you can make different groups by using the colours at the bottom of each card. After you have played the animal pairing activity, you can play the colour game grouping participants into either red, yellow, green or blue groups. From there, you can create whatever sized groups you need for the rest of the function.

Inside the deck, you will find forty different challenges that need to be completed during the function. Each participant is given a card at the start of the function, and their mission is to complete the challenge by the time the function is finished. As previously mentioned, these cards can play a huge role in breaking the ice and helping people make new meaningful connections while feeling comfortable with people they may not have previously met. It is important that you have enough cards to ensure that everyone at the function has their card.

Kindness & Happiness Mission Deck

If you are looking for a fun way to improve your overall happiness and spread positivity to those around you, then this deck of 54 cards is what you need. Our Mission cards have been designed to help improve mental health and reduce stress and anxiety using the power of kindness, empathy and gratitude.
