Let’s move!

Hi everyone, glad to see you back again!

Today I have some stories about movement.

We all know how much better we feel emotionally

and physically when we are active. Building our muscles

helps us with coordination and stamina so we can participate

in sports, music , dancing, bike riding, hiking and play grounds

safely and confidently. I hope you enjoy the stories, dance and

activities I have for you today.

Balloon play:

Playing with your child, developing movement skills,(eye hand coordination).

Social skills, (taking turns). Language /Literacy links,( counting, rhythm, rhyme).

If you put a nylon knee high over the balloon it will be less likely to pop!

It could scare the Fun out of Play if it pops!

Count how many times you can hit it up in the air without it touching the ground.

Volley the balloon back and forth between you and your child singing a song or rhyme.

Make a racket to hit the balloon back and forth from a paper plate, tape and wooden spoon.

Enjoy, Ms Trish
