KID-FIT Music and Workouts is a streaming music service that includes songs and workouts that are used in the KID-FIT preschool P.E. program created by Aerobic Fitness Consultants, Inc. The KID-FIT Preschool P.E. program has been operating since 1994. The last few years songs have been created in-house by independent artists. The tracks all belong to Aerobic Fitness Consultants and as such there are no music licensing fees to be paid for their use in the classroom or at home (they cannot be used commercially or to run any type of children’s fitness business). The workouts are pre-made KID-FIT classes that have already been tested in the field. You can use one of our full length complete workouts or customize your very own. Keep in mind the children in all the videos have done the activities an average of 1-6 times.

KID-FIT Music and Workouts was designed for anyone who wants to improve the health and fitness of young children while teaching healthy lifestyle habits. Parents, individual teachers and schools can all benefit with our easy to use, activities and unique music. The songs have all been created for use with children ages 2-Kindergarten but some of them can easily be used with older age groups.

You can see how the workout songs are presented by going to the Free P.E. Activity Idea on the home page. Each month a free Preschool P.E. Activity Idea will be posted that shows all the movement steps to one song and then an actual class with children doing that song. This is the format you will see for our complete pre-made workouts. Each workout contains between 10-11 short songs.

Yes, all songs come complete with lyrics so you and the children can sing along. Songs that have been previously used in the KID-FIT program also come with Activity notes. Activity notes explain all of the movements that we have done to the song. Activity Notes and Lyrics are available only through the KID-FIT Music and Workouts website.

The move to independent artists was done to make sure the songs are completely educational, commercial free and teach the subject matter intended. Children won’t hear them anywhere else, each one is original. There are so many talented songwriters and singers, many of which never are heard because of the highly competitive nature of the music industry. We’re here to help bring teachers and children together with hard working song writers and singers from around the world. As such, you may hear a variety of accents and different styles of music.

A service in which there is no tangible product. All the music, videos, and materials are accessible in digital form on your computer or mobile device. There is no need to store items, carry CD’s, or keep track of disks. Everything you need is on your computer or mobile device to be conveniently used at home or in the classroom. If you’ve never downloaded and played songs or videos before don’t worry, we’ll provide step by step instructions that make it easy.

Yes, you can cancel and rejoin anytime you want. No contracts. No obligations or restrictions.

Any of the playlists that you created will be gone once your membership is cancelled. You can get back any of the premixed lists quickly but will have to re-create any lists that you customized yourself.

The KID-FIT program runs according to 6-week sessions. Our workouts feature a full length balanced class so that children practice aerobic conditioning, strength, flexibility, balance, sports skills and mind/body exercise. Evidence based research done with KID-FIT shows significant results when the entire routine is done at least one time a week with the children. We suggest you work on specific skills from that class on the other days. Remember that children need repetition to learn the skills most effectively.

If you are designing your own workouts we strongly recommend that you do the same activities with the children for at least 6 weeks at a time. Changing activities too often makes it difficult for children to learn the songs and become proficient with the skills. Your workouts can be full length like our examples or you can select specific activities that target only one area of fitness and work on them. Whether you do one song or an entire workout, children will be doing more than they are now and you will be improving their health.

Children will learn a great deal from just listening and singing the songs. They are all educational and designed to teach about body systems, nutrition, sports, and healthy habits. You can also preview some of the workouts and choose just those activities that you feel you can do with the children. Least strenuous selections include those labeled balance, stretching and relaxation (sorting by fitness goal, topic and artist on website only). By starting with easier activities, over time you may be able to do more too!
