Fun Side Walk Games

I love creating side walk games for the boys! It's such a great way to get them moving while teaching them too! We've practiced Numbers and Letters before and this day I decided to play with colors and following directions:) I drew a bunch of circles in different colors, while making paths. Some paths are harder then others! See how easy Green is? The idea is to choose a color and then jump in only that color as you make it to the other side:) We also did some racing! We each chose a color and then raced across! Somehow I always lost;)

As an added challenge you never knew when one of your circles would be blocked by a cute little baby!!!
We also did some line walking:)

  5. What I love about your ideas is that they don't cost hardly anything...except time. And that isn't hard to give up considering what you get...a fun activity to do with your kids.
