Egg in the Sand

Children lie on their back and bring head and legs into a ball. Holding that position, they roll side to side.  This strengthens the core.  Can also be used as an activity motivator. Pretend the egg fell out of the nest and needs to be put back in the nest- all the way across the mat.

Deliberate feet stomping provides tactile and proprioceptive input. Baby T-Rex follows  in mom’s footprints while lifting legs as high as possible for great sensory work.

Pretending to fly by reaching your arms out to the side and lifting one leg helps strengthen the upper arms to maintain balance and posture.

This element has options! Running in place requires concentration, it also  improves our mood!  You can also run to get the egg in the sand and stretch up to  return it to its nest.
