  • Put the mats away.

    • Start the practice off by getting the children to go for a run. Then change you voice to speak s-l-o-w-l-y. The children then have to match their movements with the teachers voice.

    The next part of the practice is for children to find a partner and join hands and walk around together using tiny steps.
