Mary here and anxiously awaiting spring time and outdoor activities for my kids. It can't come soon enough!
In the meantime, here is an idea for an indoor activity that will
use up some energy and be fun for all.
This time of year we all get cabin fever but we need to move around. Yes, how can you keep a preschool kid from activities.
My 2-3 year olds love my obstacle courses. I use crawling tubes,
large balls, exercise mats, mini-tents ( made out of blankets over tables) and arrange a path for everyone to follow. This all leads to the reading circle where they are now ready to sit, relax on a pillow and hear a story.
A lot of the fun is in the building of the course. Ask for
suggestions from the kids and let them help so long as it is safe.
They love having a say in their maze of fun!
I would love to hear any ideas you use to get some safe indoor
activities going for your kids.
