- I can show balance and control when applying my jumping combinations
What you need
- Cushions or towels

- Cuddly toys (or something to use as 'treasure')
Activity 1 - Stepping stones
- Place cushions out on the floor
- Using your two feet jumping, can you jump between the cushions without landing in the lava?
- How many jumps can you make without falling?
Progression 1
- Remove some cushions (to make the jumps bigger) if it is safe to do so
Progression 2
- Add socks
- Two foot landing on cushions, one foot landing on socks
Activity 2 - Collect the treasure
- Place toys out on the floor around the stepping stones as treasure
- Using the stepping stones can you collect all the treasure without falling in the lava?
Activity 3 - Cat and mouse
- This activity requires a partner and a safe space
- One is the cat (tagger)
- The other is the mouse (evading)
