This week Miss Carrie brought out a lot of things! There were stairs to go over, hula hoops to step over or crawl under, exercise mats to follow (Jumping Jacks! Squats! Sit And Reach! Stretch! Touch Toes! Balance! March! Hop!), and there were tunnels and tents. Miss Carrie called it an obstacle course.
We went every where. We tried everything. If we weren't sure what to do, we could ask a teacher. We made sure to use walking feet. Miss Carrie took pictures of everyone. Then we all sat down and watched the big screen. Miss Carrie put our pictures on the big screen. She asked "Who is that?" "What is he/she doing?"
DO THIS AT HOME: what do you have around your house to make an obstacle course? Kids think it is great fun to watch a grown up crawl under things. If not at your house, pick a sunny day and head to the park. Talk about what you can do. Make your child the leader and get ready to follow.
