I would advise anyone who is new to teaching younger children to sign up to the Martial Games for Kids subscription.
As I have discovered; kids get bored and lose concentration very easily, the best way to keep them occupied is to make sure they are having fun. Since I have been using a variety of new games from Aaron’s Martial Games for Kids manual our Little Tiger programme is booming.
