Go team! It\u2019s officially Little League Month, and it\u2019s a great time to get your child involved in sports that they\u2019ve never tried before. Your kiddo is at the perfect age to try new things, and any type of physical activity in a world full of technology is an awesome way to get your child active and out of their comfort zone.\u00a0 Trying new sports can come with anxiety, so here are a few tips that can encourage your child to get out there and play ball!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Be their biggest cheerleader<\/span><\/h4>\n

Be your kid\u2019s biggest cheerleader when encouraging them to try new sports! There\u2019s a possibility that your child may be worried to try swimming because they are nervous about drowning. Your child may also be nervous to play soccer because they are scared that they will trip and fall. Encourage your child and tell them that they won\u2019t know until they try. This is also an important life-lesson \u2013 don\u2019t let the fear of striking out or losing stop you from playing the game.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Benefits\u00a0<\/span><\/h4>\n

Tell your preschooler about the benefits that come with playing new sports. Playing sports gives your child the opportunity to boost their self-confidence, meet new friends, and create new precious memories that they will hold onto. Sports can be scary, but remind your kiddo that there will be more benefits than disadvantages.<\/span><\/p>\n

Praise Progress\u00a0<\/span><\/h4>\n

Praise even the little moments. If your little girl is nervous about swimming, and steps into the water for the first time..then praise her! She made progress, and got over her initial fear of water. That\u2019s something to celebrate. Giving your child praise instead of being hard on them will motivate their desire to conquer these new sports.<\/span><\/p>\n

Now go on and sign up for those little league teams!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
