KS1 Physical Education: Games, Movement & Active Learning Packs for Primary Children

Get children moving, learning, and smiling with the KS1 Physical Education collection from Hands-On Education. Specially crafted for teachers and parents working with ages 5–7, these lesson packs, printables, and activity guides make PE fun, accessible, and educational—wherever and however children learn.

The KS1 PE shop collection is built around active games, fundamental movement skills, and joyful exercise routines that nurture healthy habits and confidence. Children practise running, jumping, balancing, throwing, catching, and skipping through obstacle courses, mini-competitions, and classroom-friendly challenges. Dance and movement cards encourage rhythm, imagination, and self-expression while supporting coordination and control.

Many resources in this collection cross over with other subjects: maths skills are honed with counting games, music links through action songs and rhythm activities, and science concepts come alive by learning about the human body or tracking pulse and movement. Packs such as “My Healthy Body” or “Human Body” blend PE with design, nutrition, and personal development, teaching children about health and wellbeing in practical, hands-on ways.

Every resource has been developed with ease of use in mind. Clear teacher notes, step-by-step instructions, printable activity cards, and suggestions for indoor and outdoor play ensure every lesson is achievable and inclusive. Activities can be adapted for individuals, small groups, or full classes, with minimal equipment required.

Regularly updated with new games and seasonal ideas, the KS1 PE collection keeps physical education dynamic and relevant. Explore the shop to equip your learners with the skills, energy, and positive mindset that set them up for a lifetime of activity. With Hands-On Education, every child can leap, stretch, run—and discover the joy of moving their body.
