I have been working around the clock on the magazine, and didn't even realize yesterday was Monday!!!!! So I don't have an article for "Get up and Move Mondays" this week, but just remember even though it is still wet and raining out, you can still get up and move!!!
Some quick fun ideas:
Milk Jug Catch
This game requires two milk jugs with the bottom cut off, and a ball. The object is using only the milk jug, no hands, throw each other the ball. It gets pretty interesting trying to get the ball back in the jug when the ball gets dropped! Kids love this game, and it'll keep you and them busy for awhile. Note: Its best to cut the jugs without the kids, because they can be tricky to cut, and probably a little to dangerous for young kids to try.
Mirror Mirror
This is a game I learned in acting class in high school. You stand face to face with your child and you have to imitate everything they do, or vise versa. Move slow so that the movements are easy to copy. Follow hand waves, blinks, squats, etc. How close can you come to a mirror image?
