The Learning Station: Action Songs

 Children will love this energizing collection of fun, interactive activity and dance songs. Exercise and learning go hand in hand. Regular brain breaks enhance attentiveness, concentration and focus. They accelerate learning by allowing children to release their energy, anxiety and stress. Brain breaks also increase circulation, promote physical fitness and coordination. These action, dance and movement songs make it easy to integrate brain breaks into your classroom. They are also great activity songs for physical education, group activities or indoor recess.
