Engaging Youth and Teens with GojiPlay Bikes
In today's fast-paced, technology-driven world, many youth and teens find themselves glued to their screens, often leading to disembodied experiences where they are not fully present. This constant immersion in digital environments can contribute to feelings of anxiety and depression, exacerbating the challenges they face during their formative years.
At Blue Goji, we understand the importance of engaging youth and helping them find joy in physical activity. Our goal is to create an environment where exercise is seen not as a chore, but as a fun and integral part of being a kid. By combining gaming with physical activity, we aim to transform exercise into an enjoyable and rewarding experience that will help kids and teens develop healthy habits. Cardiogaming with Blue Goji Bikes offers a unique solution that integrates physical, social, cognitive, and mental health, fostering a holistic sense of embodiment. This approach helps kids transition from passive screen time to active and engaging play, forming a healthy relationship with exercise that can last a lifetime.
Engaging youth and teens with Blue Goji Bikes is a fantastic way to promote physical activity and social interaction. Here are some tips and strategies to make the most of this innovative fitness approach:
1. Group Play and Multiplayer Mode: Encourage kids to gather in groups and play in multiplayer mode. The excitement of playing together, whether competing for leaderboard spots or racing live, adds an element of fun and motivation. If your facility doesn’t have enough bikes, organize teams so that kids can rotate, giving everyone a chance to play and a breather between games.
By participating in multiplayer games that require teamwork and strategy, kids learn valuable skills such as communication and cooperation, all while having a blast.
2. Incentives and Events: Organize special events like gaming nights with enticing incentives such as pizza or other snacks. Youth directors from our partner facilities have found that combining gaming sessions with food is a great way to keep kids engaged and motivated, because these kids WILL work up an appetite with cardiogaming.
