Let’s Have Fun with the Beanbag Bop!

Hey there, little friend! Are you ready to have some fun with your beanbag? Let’s get moving and do the Beanbag Bop together! It’s a super fun dance where we move our beanbags in all sorts of ways. Are you excited? Let’s go!

Move Your Beanbag High and Low

First, let’s move our beanbag high up in the air. Can you reach up high? Now, let’s move it down low, close to the ground. Up high, down low, and bop, bop, bop! Keep moving your beanbag like you never want to stop. You’re doing great!

Shake and Circle Your Beanbag

Now, let’s shake our beanbag from side to side. Shake it, shake it, just like that! Can you make a big circle with your beanbag? Round and round we go! This is so much fun!

Up and Down, Between Your Knees

Let’s move our beanbag up and down again. Up, down, up, and down. Now, can you put your beanbag between your knees? Try to swing it and sway it. You’re doing an awesome job!

Beanbag on Your Head and Under Your Chin

Can you balance your beanbag on top of your head? Be careful, don’t let it fall! Now, let’s hold it under our chin. You’re so good at this!

Toss and Catch Your Beanbag

Let’s toss our beanbag up in the air and catch it. Toss it up, catch it, and do it again! Now, let’s toss it back and forth. You’re a beanbag tossing superstar!

Keep Bopping with Your Beanbag

Remember to move your beanbag high and low, and bop, bop, bop! Keep having fun and never stop. You’re amazing at the Beanbag Bop!

Great job, my friend! You did the Beanbag Bop so well. Keep practicing and have lots of fun with your beanbag. See you next time!

  • What was your favorite way to move the beanbag in the Beanbag Bop? Can you think of a new way to move it that wasn’t in the video?
  • Have you ever played with a beanbag or a similar toy before? What other games or activities do you like to do with it?
  • Why do you think moving and playing with a beanbag can be fun and good for us? How does it make you feel when you dance and move around?
  1. Beanbag Adventure Walk: Take your beanbag on a little adventure around your home or classroom. As you walk, try to balance the beanbag on different parts of your body, like your shoulder, elbow, or foot. Can you walk without dropping it? This will help you practice balance and coordination. Share with your friends or family which part was the hardest to balance the beanbag on and why!

  2. Beanbag Storytime: Use your beanbag to tell a story. Pretend it’s a character in a fun adventure. Maybe it’s a superhero beanbag saving the day or a beanbag exploring a magical land. Act out the story with your beanbag, using the movements you learned, like tossing, shaking, and balancing. Ask your friends or family to join in and create a story together!

  3. Beanbag Nature Hunt: Go outside with your beanbag and look for things in nature that you can move like your beanbag. Can you find a leaf that moves in the wind or a rock that you can balance on your head? Try to mimic these movements with your beanbag. Talk about how different things in nature move and how they are similar or different from your beanbag movements.
