How do I explain tennis to a young child?

Explain tennis to a young child as a game where you use a racket to hit a ball over a net so it lands inside the lines. Start with holding the racket, watching the ball, and gentle swings. Let's Play Tennis shows a child ages 3 to 8 how a serve works and what a first lesson feels like.

Tennis book questions

What age is the Champion MVP Tennis book for?

The Tennis storybook is written for ages 3 to 8. Children ages 3 to 5 follow along through the illustrations while an adult reads aloud, ages 5 to 7 read it together with an adult, and ages 6 to 8 work through the puzzle book on their own.

When should I read the tennis book with my child?

The week before sign-ups or the night before the first practice. The story walks through what a first tennis practice feels like, including the nervous parts, so your child knows what to expect before they arrive.
