Fun Summer Activities - Part 5 of 6
Summer vacation means there is more time for play!!! We realize that searching the Internet for theme-based and sensory-rich activities to do with your kids can be overwhelming. We decided to do the work for you! This 6 part series will feature the six themes of our 2018 GHC Summer Camps: Science/STEM, Nature, Cooking, Legos, Star Wars, and Super Heroes. You can have your own mini-camp experience at home or join us for a full week to explore any of these themes.
Light Saber Balance Battle from: https://www.kixcereal.com/star-wars-day-craft-pool-noodle-lightsaber/
Pool noodles, foil, and tape are all you need to construct these safe-for-battle Light Sabers. To keep the kids challenged, and focused on their own body, have them stand on safe, but unstable, surfaces while they battle. For example, a wiggle cushion, balance board, or even an old pillow. Low balance beams made out of foam bocks or scrap lumber are also great options. Balance, bilateral coordination, eye tracking, and social skills are all supported in this fun activity.
