In today’s society bullying has become the biggest problem for kids. Our BMX stunt show will not only show the victims, but also the offenders, why it’s bad to be a bully and how it effects people. Everyone has witnessed a bully in their lives, but being bullied at a young age can drive kids to make the wrong decisions in the future.
Our BMX stunt team will explain to the kids, in a fun way, the effects from bullying and where it can lead you. We know that bullying is a very serious issue. That is why our BMX School Assembly Program is designed to make a positive and lasting impact with your children.
Let’s be honest here, no one likes being bullied. That’s why something needs to be done to show the bullying kids that it is hurting other people and that they need to stop. Our BMX bicycle stunt show is designed to help your children realize the effects from bullying, in hopes that they will recognize, refuse, and react to bullying.
Having a positive role model is guaranteed to leave a meaningful impact with the kids who are bullying others. It will also show the victims how to deal with being bullied and what they should and shouldn’t do.
Here are some key points that we will go over:
- why bullying is bad and how it affects others and yourself
- what you can do if you’re being bullied
- where life could lead you from bullying
- how bullying hurts others, tremendously.
We will explain to them that there is no need to bully others and to try to look at things in a positive way, not negative.
