Indoor Activities for Children Ages 0-3
Week of May 24th, 2020
Block Basketball
Materials You Need:
-
Soft blocks, rolling balls or bean bags
-
Something to be the basket (clean garbage can, a laundry basket, bucket, or just a target on the floor works too!)
What to do:
-
Start playing. With little ones, simply fill and spill, while they are handling a certain color label it for them, encourage them, and toss some in yourself! Practice taking turns, as it’s a great side lesson.
-
For older children the sky is the limit, You can ask them to pop in a certain color, or even give them riddles to figure out. Like “can you throw the bean bag that is the same color as my shirt?” Also you can grab a tape measure and see if you can make a basket at 1 foot away, 2 feet away…3 feet away! Or even just see who can make the most baskets in a row!
