Soccer Training for Very Young Players (U5-U7)

I just read an interesting article that emphasized training our U5-U7 players more on movement skills than soccer skills. This is interesting. I've struggled with several of my U5 boys to keep their attention on soccer related games. But now that I think about it, when we played games more focused on motor skills, they seemed to have the most fun. I'm thinking I might try more games with running, jumping, tumbling and other motor skills as the emphasis. It just might make soccer practice more fun for the boys and the coaches.
