You probably know what a hoop is. We saw how gymnasts performed mesmerizingly with it, and circus actors enchantingly twirled a stack of hoops. Hoops are often used by teachers physical culture in kindergartens and schools. But you yourself can successfully use the hoop for outdoor games with your baby at home and on the street. Games with a hoop will make your baby stronger, more dexterous, and more resilient. The hoop will be useful for educational activities with your child.
In this article we will discuss how to choose a hoop for your child and how to use this simple item in a variety of games with your baby.
How to choose a hoop
When buying a hoop for a child, pay attention to its size and the material from which the hoop is made. For children under 4 years old, it is better to buy hoops of small or medium diameter (60 - 90 cm). Children aged 4 years and older can also play with large diameter hoops (from 100 cm).
It is desirable that the hoop be light. Plastic hoops are the most suitable for children. Steel and aluminum hoops are now made hollow inside, so they are also lightweight, but they are cold to the touch and less pleasant for children's hands.
If you plan to use the same hoop for your fitness activities, you can purchase a hoop with massage attachments.
Let's jump into a hoop
By the age of two, children begin to jump on two legs. Teach your child to jump into a hoop lying on the floor and jump out of it on two legs. When the baby gets used to it, you can raise the hoop slightly above the floor level.
We roll and twist
Show your child that a hoop can roll like a wheel. You can roll the hoop to each other or have a competition to see who can roll the hoop the furthest. You can teach a three-year-old child to roll a hoop by passing it in his hand or holding it on a shelf.
If you place the hoop on the floor with one side and slightly spin it from the middle of the other side, the hoop will spin like a top. You can have a competition to see who can spin the hoop the longest.
Bus driver
Give your child a hoop that he can grasp with his hands on both sides, and invite him to become a car or bus driver. The kid moves around the room and turns the steering wheel - a hoop, the passengers follow him.
We're spinning
Together with your child, grab the hoop with both hands from different sides and begin to move slowly in one direction. Gradually spin faster and faster.
Do you want to play with your child easily and with pleasure?
We're pushing
Mark a rectangle on the floor that you cannot step on. The borders can be the edges of the carpet. Together with your child, grab the hoop with both hands from different sides. When moving inside the marked territory, try to push your opponent beyond its borders.
Target
A hoop lying on the floor, leaning against a wall, or hanging vertically can make an excellent target. Teach your child to throw soft balls at a target. The best shots can be marked on the floor or wall with stickers that can be easily removed.
Throwing a hoop
Show your child that a hoop can be thrown on a stool, a large bottle standing on the floor, or on a tree stump outside.
Catch-up with a hoop
If you're playing tag at home, the hoop can become a house. A player who hid in a house can no longer be hit. It's a lot of fun to play catch-up with hoops - houses in a large group on the street. Make the task more difficult for the runner: let the child run with a hoop on one leg. You can catch those running away with a hoop, just be careful not to hit anyone.
Hoop games for a large company
Tunnel
You can make a tunnel from several hoops. Children pass through it one after another, trying not to touch the hoops, or roll a ball and pass after it. If the ball rolls out of the tunnel, the player is eliminated.
Nest
Place the hoop on the ground. Children stand in a hoop - they are birds in a nest. At the leader’s command “Let’s fly!”, the birds fly out of the nest and run around the site. When the presenter gives the command “Cat! Everybody go to the nest,” the birds try to run to the nest – a hoop – and hide in it. The leader is a cat trying to catch the birds. Whoever is caught is out of the game.
One extra
For this game you will need several hoops: one for each participant. The hoops are laid out on the floor. Children stand in them (one at a time in each). If you arrange the hoops in a circle, children can step from one hoop to another. When the leader says: “Let’s run!”, the children come out of the hoops and run around the playground, and the leader removes one hoop. At the command of the presenter “To the houses!”, the children must stand in the hoop. The one who does not get a place is eliminated from the game.
During outdoor games, try to turn on rhythmic music: the game will become more dynamic and fun.
Hoop - props for role-playing games
When your child starts playing role-playing games, you can use the hoop as a prop for them. The hoop can become:
- lake,
- round table, behind which the dolls gathered for lunch;
- a roundabout on the road (the road can be made on the floor using insulating tape and masking tape) and so on.
Hoop: getting to know the circle
Experts advise: if you decide to introduce your baby to, start with a circle. And the hoop is just a big circle. It will allow your baby not only to remember what a circle is, but also to feel it with his whole body. Invite your child to run around and inside the hoop and roll the ball along the inner edge of the hoop. Lay the rope around the hoop, remove the hoop - what remains is a circle of rope. You can lie down in the hoop and, spreading your arms and legs, try to reach the hoop with your hands and feet.
Stand in the hoop and raise it to the level of the child's hands. You are the Earth, the hoop is the orbit of the Moon. Invite your child to become the Moon and, holding a hoop with one hand, fly around the Earth. In a similar way, you can play the Earth revolving around the Sun.
Fold it round. Place several objects in the box: round and some other shape. Ask your child to take only round objects out of the box and put them in the hoop.
You will find a few more ideas on what exercises you can do with a hoop in this video:
The hoop is also called a hula hoop. With its help, children can do different exercises, both simple and complex, and you can also twist one or more hoops around your waist. This item does not require any instructions and is safe for children. Exercises help train breathing, improve muscle and vascular tone; if you twist the hoop, it massages from the hips to the chest. Moreover, the exercises do not require a special room; you can do them even in front of the TV.
Types of hoops
The simplest hoops are made of plastic, aluminum and steel. Plastic ones are suitable for children due to their light weight, they are best taken for exercise, the diameter for children should be about 80 centimeters. For teenagers who want to improve their figure by twirling a hoop around their waist, plastic ones are not suitable. For modeling your figure, exercises with several plastic hoops are only suitable. To improve blood circulation, you can spin massage hoops with special balls, but for them children need average school age and elders. There are also complex accessories, with different sensors that show heart rate and other indicators.
Simple exercises
These exercises can be done as in kindergarten, and in the lower grades of school.
Respiratory complex
Breathing exercises with a hoop can be done before and after classes, as a kind of warm-up or relaxation exercise.
Hoop games
Exercises for children can be done individually, as well as in a group, so children will learn to keep their distance, listen to the teacher, and generally learn how to handle this equipment, which requires coordination of movements.

Exercises with a hoop are one of the most interesting sections of rhythmic gymnastics. This is an excellent tool for developing coordination, speed, motor response, and precision of movements. Exercises with a hoop increase the strength of the arms, especially the fingers and hands, and effectively influence the formation of correct posture.
IN school curriculum Exercises with a hoop are performed by girls of grades X - XI. The hoop can also be used when performing general developmental exercises.
Hoops are made of plastic, wood, and duralumin. They come in different sizes. The most common hoop is 80 - 90 cm in diameter.
Exercises with a hoop are divided into the following groups:
turns,
rotation,
throwing and catching,
jumping into and through hoops,
swing movements,
hoop rolls.
All movements with the hoop are performed with one or two hands, in different directions and planes, in combination with the movement of the torso and legs.
Below are the simplest exercises that can be used in physical education lessons and extracurricular activities with schoolchildren.
There are grips:
two hands outside
