Over the past 15 years, at Ohio State U niversity we have developed and implemented Project SKIP (Successful Kinesthetic Instruction for Preschoolers), a motor skill program for children considered at risk for developmental delays and/or educational failure. Project SKIP emphasizes developing competence in fundamental motor skills (see p. 3) and promoting children’s accurate perceptions of their physical competence. The program is culturally sensitive and integrates early childhood standards into its goals and activities. In our assessment of Project SKIP, we have found ways to infuse regular physical activity into early childhood classrooms; witnessed significant improvement of motor skills and perceived physical competence of children receiving the curriculum; seen remediation of motor delays; and developed strategies to educate teachers about the importance of physical activity and the means to promote an active start (Goodway & Branta 2003). This article shares some of the core premises of Project SKIP and a few of the many activities that can be easily incorporated into an early childhood setting.
