What customers are saying about Skillastics™

"My 4-H clubs have loved using Fitness Skillastics. There is never a dull moment, nor an idle 4-H member, when I bring out Fitness Skillastics. Every 4-H member given the opportunity to participate in this activity does. It is an awesome product!"

"I teach at Lafayette Elementary School in Lafayette, CA. In an effort to make it easier for my colleagues to get their PE minutes into our busy days, I offer them suggestions occasionally on how to engage their students in meaningful activities. Using your Fitness Skillastics game, I copied the skills onto tagboard, laminated them, and put them in ziplock bags. At one of our faculty meetings, I spread out the game mat, game pieces, and proceeded to show them how fun it is. We passed out the packages of cards and told them to just send a child to my room to get the game bag when they wanted to play! We talked about having each child take one card and learn that skill, teach it to the class, then collect the cards and play the game. I told them they could play either inside or out. I guaranteed that the children would be exhausted when they were done! It has worked well! The children beg to play the game! My class has a 1st grade buddy class and we will be teaching them how to play after Spring Break. My students will show them how the exercises are done by having them look at the pictures, so they can then play the game by themselves. The reception by the teachers has been great. They are appreciative of any new ideas that are offered. My thanks to you for providing the means to get the kids moving! Sincerely, Nancy Beliveau 4th Grade Teacher Lafayette, CA "

"Basketball and Fitness Skillastics are an integral part of our curriculum at Ketterlinus. I use the games in large group settings and in station work with smaller groups. The kids love the tasks and it allows me to observe and help the ones who need extra attention. The Basketball Skillastics game is also used in conjunction with our TOT Basketball program. It helps the kids perfect skills that are used in their performance routines. We have a big emphasis on fitness in our school and I use the Fitness Skillastics game along with other fitness based games in station rotations."

"First of all, visually, stunning. It LOOKS COOL. So kids are attracted to bright, colorful things. The pace is constant - excellent for keeping 'em busy. Conditioning, it's A+."

"I teach a toddler's creative movement class. The children get so excited when they see the Halfpint Skillastics Dice come out of the bag. Halfpint Skillastics really gets them moving in ways they haven't thought of. It's fun to watch them learn how to use their bodies. The children always have an awesome time!"

"Sandy's Skillastics game was a motivational boost to our PE classes during our basketball curriculum. The students not only had fun with it, but developed better ball-handling skills, more cooperation and a better understanding of the skills involved in basketball. Thank you, thank you, thank you for such a motivational and fun activity and game for basketball. The kids LOVED it."
