Physical Health - Week 8

• Balance Beam: Using masking tape, make a line on the ground. Walk to the end of the line. Try more lines at different angles, spirals, and zig-zags. See who can walk the line the fastest, walk it heel to toe, walk it backwards, with eyes closed (take your socks off so you can feel the line), and jump down the line.

• Crab Walking: sit on your bottom, place your hands on the floor behind you, push up and start moving.

• Crab walk to the bathroom to brush your teeth, crab walk to the door to get your shoes, crab walk to the kitchen and get a drink, crab walk ANYWHERE. Inside, outside, at home, at school. It’s as simple as that and so very beneficial!

• Have a crab walk race with others in your family.

• Try balancing different objects on your stomach as you crabwalk.

• Try it on varied surfaces (inclines, declines, hard, soft, smooshy, etc).

• Do a crab dance…lift one hand up and hold it for 5. Try a foot. Amazing core work!
