You need
Nothing! Just you.
Steps
- 1. Bear walk: hands and feet on the floor, bottom up high.
- 2. Frog jump: squat down low, then jump up.
- 3. Crab walk: sit, hands behind, lift your tummy and walk.
- 4. Your turn to choose! The grown-up copies your animal.
⚠ Safety · Stay nearby
Clear the floor of toys first.
Stop if:
- Your child is out of breath
- Anything hurts
Easier
Do only bear walk and frog jump.
Harder
Make a race track: bear to the door, crab back.
Only 5 minutes?
One lap of each animal.
Why it matters: Moving like animals builds strength, balance and body control.
Clean-up: Nothing to tidy. A big stretch to finish.
