  1. What fun moves did we learn to do together?
  2. How did it feel to jump and kick like a superstar?
  3. Can you show me your favorite dance move from our playtime?

Let’s Move and Play!

Hey there! Are you ready to have some fun and learn new moves? Let’s get started!

Reach and Roll

First, let’s reach up high to the sky! Reach, reach! Now, let’s roll like a little ball. Roll, roll! Can you sit up tall? Sit up, sit up! Great job!

Crawl and Walk

Now, let’s pretend we’re little crawling bugs. Crawl, crawl! Can you stand up tall like a big tree? Stand up, stand up! Now, let’s walk, walk, walk! You’re doing amazing!

Playtime Fun

Let’s play a game! Can you touch your nose? Touch your nose! Peekaboo! I see you! Let’s clap our hands. Clap, clap! Touch your nose again. Touch your nose! Peekaboo! Clap, clap! Yay!

Jump and Kick

Let’s wave our hands like we’re saying hello. Wave, wave! Can you jump up high? Jump, jump! Now, let’s kick our feet. Kick, kick! You’re a superstar!

If You’re Happy

If you’re happy and you know it, clap your hands! Clap, clap! If you’re happy and you know it, stomp your feet! Stomp, stomp! If you’re happy and you know it, shout hooray! Hooray!

Let’s Move and Dance

Let’s rock back and forth like we’re on a boat. Rock, rock! Can you shake your body? Shake, shake! Now, let’s twist like a twirly tornado. Twist, twist!

Spin and Dance

Let’s spin around like a spinning top. Spin, spin! Now, let’s dance like we’re at a party. Dance, dance! You’re a fantastic dancer!

Thanks for playing and moving with me! See you next time!

  • What was your favorite move or activity from the video and article? Can you show us how to do it?
  • Can you think of a time when you played a game or did an activity that made you feel really happy? What was it, and why did it make you feel that way?
  • Imagine you’re a little bug crawling on the ground. What other animals or things can you pretend to be, and how would you move like them?
  1. Animal Movement Adventure: Let’s pretend to be different animals! Can you hop like a kangaroo? Now, slither like a snake! How about flapping your arms like a bird? Encourage your friends or family to join you and see who can come up with the most creative animal movements. Talk about how each animal moves differently and why.

  2. Movement Memory Game: Create a sequence of movements from the video, like “reach, roll, clap.” Perform the sequence and then add one more move, like “jump.” See how many moves you can remember and add to the sequence. This game helps you practice remembering and following patterns, just like in the video!

  3. Everyday Movement Hunt: Go on a movement hunt around your home or playground. Look for things that move, like a swinging door, a rolling ball, or a waving flag. Try to mimic these movements with your body. Discuss with a friend or family member why these things move and how it relates to the movements you learned in the lesson.
