Example 1 — The Animal Kingdom Course

Let's pretend to be animals! Set up these stations in a safe, open space.Frog Hops: Place a pillow on the floor. Do 5 big frog hops over the pillow.Bear Crawl: From the pillow, crawl on your hands and feet like a big bear to a nearby chair.Crab Walk: Now, walk sideways like a silly crab all the way around the chair.Flamingo Balance: Stand next to the chair and try to balance on one leg for 10 seconds, just like a flamingo! Then switch legs.
