Soccer Starts at Home
I really hope you take a few minutes to read, watch and share these resources with friends and family.
The ultimate goal with this is to give the kids a headstart in soccer and an active lifestyle and also to help their enjoyment levels through having a capability of using the ball how they want.
This is a really playful activity and shouldn't be seen as practice or a chore at home. Just as they would play with a stuffed animal or any other toy, that's how we want them to see a soccer ball.
You can get a small sponge soccer ball from Dollar Tree and these are perfect to get started with.
