Theme Area: Skating Party at Home
Related Episode: On Thin Ice
Subjects/Skills: Pretend Play, Movement
Materials Needed:
Socks
A flat, slippery surface, such as a wood or linoleum floor.
Directions:
Invite your child to a "skating" party in your home. Put on some socks and head to a flat, slippery surface.
At first, just practice sliding around on the floor. Then encourage your child to try some different moves, such as spinning in a circle. Remind your child to keep the moves simple, so that she doesn't fall.
Challenge each other with new skating moves, such as sliding from side to side, or sliding on your knees. Encourage your child to think of some funny names for the skating moves, such as the "super duper twirling side-to-side."
