Throw and Catch
Week of April 27th-May 1st
Hi Everyone!
This week I have added some fun throwing and catching challenges for you to try. Some of the challenges require a partner and some of the challenges can be completed all by yourself! If you don't have a ball at home, you can use any soft object to throw, such as a pair of rolled up socks, a stuffed animal, etc. Remember to ask permission before trying the activities and make sure that you have enough room and a safe space to throw and catch. Keep checking back each week for new activities! Stay safe and healthy and happy moving!

Hi Everyone,
This week were are focusing on mindfulness. Please take some time to enjoy these yoga adventures and breathing exercises. This week at home, take some time for yourself and enjoy an activity that makes you feel happy and centered. I have been enjoying walking my dog and working in the garden because those activities make me feel peaceful and happy. Sometimes, it can also be helpful to just sit and focus on my breathing or rest in the sun. What makes you feel happy and at peace? Hope you are all staying safe and healthy! Check in next week for important information about Virtual Field Day at Garden City! Happy moving!
