This week, our preschoolers will explore ways to move.
We will be talking about personal space. Your child will think about giving others the space they need.
To help, you can encourage your child to walk, run, skip and hop along a path or sidewalk. Explore toys that help you both move as you roller skate, ride a scooter, or pull a wagon. Point out that these fun activities are good exercise.
Explain to your child that the body can move in many different ways.
Play an “Imitate Me” game. Bend a finger and have your child imitate the move. Stand on one foot and swing the other leg. Repeat with other body parts and more challenging moves. Invite your child to be the leader and model moves for you to imitate.
