Spin the Wheel Exercise Worksheet for Kids

This spinner-based worksheet gets children ages 3-5 moving by having them build a simple spinning wheel, then perform whichever exercise the arrow lands on, combining following-directions practice with gross motor skill development like jumping, stretching, or hopping. Turning physical activity into a game with an element of chance also keeps young children more engaged than a straightforward list of exercises would.

How to use this worksheet

Help your child cut out the wheel and the arrow pointer. Attach the arrow to the center of the wheel using a pin, brad, or similar fastener so it can spin freely. Take turns spinning the arrow and reading aloud whichever exercise it lands on. Perform that exercise together for the stated amount of time or repetitions before spinning again.

Materials needed

  • Scissors
  • Pin

Extension activities

  • Design a second spinner wheel with new exercises your child invents.
  • Turn the spins into a mini obstacle course, doing each landed exercise at a different station around the room.
  • Set a timer and see how many total spins and exercises you can complete in five minutes.
  • Draw a picture of your favorite exercise from the wheel after playing.
  • Play music and spin the wheel between songs as a fun movement break during the day.
