Today we’re going to have fun exploring movement with bean bags. If you're learning at home, you can make 'sock balls' to use in place of bean bags (simply use two or three pairs of large socks rolled inside each other to form a ball).

With your bean bag on the floor:

• Walk around the activity area and count all of the bean bags.

• Jog in the area. On signal, freeze and point to any beanbag.

• Gallop in the area. Freeze, call out a color, and then find a beanbag or that color and touch it with your toe.

• Leap over your beanbags.

• Slide (jump, hop, skip) around. When music stops, find a new bean bag and stand on it.

Toss your bean bag straight up and then:

• Clap 1 time before it hits the floor.

• Clap 1 time and then try to catch it.

• Clap as many times as you can before it hits the floor.

• Clap as many times as you can and then try to catch it.

• Toss with right hand only (repeat tasks above)

• Toss with left hand only (repeat tasks above)

• Toss and turn 360 degrees before the bean bag hits the floor.

• Start with the beanbag on top of your foot. Flip it into the air and try to catch it.
