Unicycling Lessons for Kids
Kids can unicycle too!
Looking for a fun, engaging and unique activity for your kids to do in Singapore?
Be it during school term or June/December school holidays, unicycling is a fun and challenging activity for kids. Learning to unicycle develops kids’ physical skills and builds their character at the same time.
Because attempting to ride a unicycle is an unnatural, difficult, and complex skill, it reveals quite a bit about the process of learning, more generally. If we can distill what is required to ride a unicycle into broader steps, we can apply them to a range of valuable skills that are also difficult to learn. – TEACH Magazine, Unicycles – A Lesson for learning Complex Skills
The benefits of learning to unicycle are immeasurable…
Besides keeping kids physically active and fit, unicycling is a great experiential learning tool. Unicycling allows kids to gain a real sense of achievement by mastering what looks and feels very difficult in the beginning. It teaches kids to be resilient, determined, and committed, among others.

Do you know?
The International Unicycling Federation (IUF) was founded in Japan in 1982.
