A little bit about me…. my name is Debbie and I am the franchisee for Socatots in Bath and North East Somerset. You may have discovered Socatots as I did, looking for a quality activity for a little one that offered physical play that not only encouraged aspects of physical development but also mental and social development. Having a young son and daughter both with buckets of energy and an obsession with balls it sounded perfect. As Socatots was not available in B&NES I saw it as a brilliant opportunity to bring it to the area. With my background of being a nurse I am a huge advocate of promoting a healthy lifestyle and like any mother I want my children to have a happy, healthy, adventurous, secure and so importantly fun filled childhood and I believe Socatots can make a real difference.The parent (carer) participation involved in the sessions allows the child to have fun with those close to them, the limit of 8 children per session ensures each child (and participating adult) receives the appropriate level of input from the class leader. I am sure that the fun filled Socatots sessions, delivered through the ever popular medium of football will not only develop your child’s basic all-round football skills but will also give them many physical, intellectual and social benefits. Booking is essential, so please do not hesitate to contact me to reserve your place. Hope to see you at a Socatots session soon! Debbie. An Introduction to Socatots SOCATOTS® is the world's first soccer specific physical play programme for children from six months to school age. Aimed at giving children their very first start with the ball. SOCATOTS® was developed by Simon Clifford and is a truly unique programme. SOCATOTS® uses soccer or football as our medium and of course a child attending SOCATOTS® will greatly develop their skills in this area, however SOCATOTS® is about a great deal more than just developing a child's affinity and control with the ball, it is about giving them a well-rounded start in their physical, social and educational development and developing the 'whole child'. Attending SOCATOTS® classes has enormous benefits for young children and their parents, some of which are listed below: -
Improvement of balance and co-ordination, as well as posture -
Development of cognitive skills -
Increased self confidence -
Improved social skills -
Enhanced muscle and bone development -
More body awareness and understanding of the benefits of exercise  Thank you to all who nominated for Debbie in the ‘What’s on 4 little ones’ awards 2011 ‘most outstanding activity leader for the under 5’s’ category. |
