INDOOR EXERCISE TRACK FOR ACTIVE PLAY TIME

Check. out this amazing indoor active activity for kids! Best part, it is so easy to make and all you need is a roll of tape. Of course I made it a little extra colorful, but you don’t really need all the rainbow colored tapes to make this exercise track. Also, if you have jumbo letters laying randomly around your house like I did, you can use them to label the stations or add actions for each!

I had made an outdoors track using chalk, it was so fun we decided to make it indoors too! Unlike tape, chalk fades away, tape doesn’t, and is very easy to just remove. This is the perfect at home active play activity for kids. Specially now that we are trying to stay safe at home it’s important for our little ones to jump around, exercise and have FUN! Good thing for us is they’ll be so tired after!

Here are some ideas of what I put on the track, you can add or remove any of these and make it your own!

  1. Hop Scotch

  2. Run Line

  3. Frog Jumps

  4. Hot Stones

  5. Jumping Jacks

  6. Balance Line (While singing the ABCs)

  7. Name letter hop on one foot

  8. Jump in the box

  9. Zig zag jog line

  10. Hop from one to the other

  11. Crisscross Jumps

  12. Alphabet bubbles

  13. Walk backwards

  14. Army crawl

  15. Lunges from one spot to the other

And if you wanna skip the gym and join in the fun, why not? Not gonna lie, I might have been out of breath after just the second round!

Try it! How many rounds can you do with your toddlers?
