Related Episode: Making It Fun

Subjects/Skills: Art; Emotional Development

Materials Needed:
Chalk
Toy cars

Directions:
Talk about the path that the Dragon Tales friends made for the little unicorns. Ask, "Why was it important for the Dragon Tales friends to help the unicorns?" Bring some chalk outside with your child. Ask your child to help you find a good place to draw with your chalk.

Invite your child to draw a path where you can race some toy cars or toy animals on. Let her know that you would like to make a long path.

Work together to create the path. As you work, talk about how important it is to keep working, even when it seems like it would be easier to give up. Ask your child to think of ways that would make it easier or faster to create the path.

When you're finished, you should each take a car or animal and race them around the path.
