Overview

The Stretch-n-Grow fitness program is designed to promote exercise and wellness for preschoolers. The program supports parents and caregivers with developing good health and fitness habits in young children. Classes are taught in childcare centres and community based education centres by qualified Stretch-n-Grow instructors (coaches).

Each week Stretch-n-Grow “Stars” participate in a 45-minute session which includes exercise, activities that improve motor-development skills, and a discussion about a health related issue such as nutrition, rest, hygiene and safety. Stars have lots of fun while they exercise and learn good health habits
