Obstacle Fun!

"I'm going to count to the children" Finley 

"Take your marks, get set, go!" Fatimah 

"The stepping stones were a bit tricky" Olivia 

On Friday we put away the bikes for the day and pulled out the games equipment. The children excitedly helped to build an obstacle course around the road and took much delight at completing it. The children took turns to start each participant and some children decided they would time the competitors. Finley chose to count how long the other children took to complete the course. In the afternoon the adults showed the children the stopwatch function on the iPads and they took turns timing each other. 

The obstacle course provided the children would a great experience to develop their physical and gross motor skills. It also involved lots of teamwork and turn taking as they cheered each other on. Next time we are going to record everyone's times and see if we can work out who was the fastest!
