Hi, I'm Darlene Koskinen.
My deepest passion is to teach meaningful movement to early learners and to those who have learning difficulties and challenges. I am eager to share with you my tried and trusted teaching methods gained from 30 years of experience: a multitude of activities, games and challenges that are effective for the development of the fundamental movement skills. The MoovKids easy-to-use video resource gives you a multitude of activities, games and challenges that effectively develop all of the fundamental movement skills. Each short video shows you how to set up and teach in a fun and captivating way that will have your children eager to move every day! Movement is at the core of all learning and I am honoured to have the opportunity to help you in this crucial area of your children's development.
