Exercise of the Week

Who said that exercising can't be fun? Participating in activities not only gets your heart racing, but it also helps you make more friends and teaches you how to work with others. Besides, wouldn't you rather be outside in the beautiful weather with your buddies than sitting alone inside on the couch?

Alight kids, grab your friends, a piece of chalk, and a small rock. Find a nice driveway (ask your parents permissions first), and start drawing a hopscotch! Start with drawing one sqaure with the chalk, then two more in a row directly on top of it, then make two squares (side-by-side) on top of the three you have already drawn. Draw one more directly on top of the previous ones, and then end with two more squares lying side-by-side. Now you are ready to go!

Start at the beginning of the hopscotch (close your eyes), and the throw the rock at the squares. The square on which the rock lands is the one you have to skip. Open your eyes and on one foot, hop your way down the hopscotch (skipping the square with the rock).

Too easy for you? Try it with two rocks and skip both squares.
