Materials: Furniture.
STEP 1
Brainstorm some fun movements: crawling, hopping, jumping, climbing, stomping. What others can you think of ?
STEP 2
Set up or move furniture and other household items to mark where your child should make each movement. They might crawl under chairs, then make big steps over some shoeboxes, then hop until they get to the wall.
STEP 3
Make your obstacle course your own and teach your child what to do. Then let them see what they can do!
MAKE IT EASIER:
Try starting with just a few stations in your obstacle course. When they have mastered those, add more stations and more challenging movements.
EXTEND THE LEARNING:
Add more challenging movements like skipping or walking backward. Then encourage them to complete the course faster and beat a timer!
