What you need:
Long string or thread
How to play:
- String yarn throughout the house, creating an obstacle course with its path (keeping in mind that your child will be following where the string goes, so safety first!)
- Challenge your child to step only on the string, following it from beginning to end.
- Time how long it takes them to complete the course, then have them repeat it to see if they can beat their own record!
Play tip:
This game can work for multiple ages. Older children can time their younger siblings, or complete the course on tiptoes for an extra challenge.
