It's easy to create an obstacle course - and fun,
too! You'll want to ask your friends to help you.
First, you'll need to gather materials. Good things
for this project include anything you have to climb
over, crawl under, or maneuver around. For example,
take 6 shoe boxes and place them in a straight line,
then place one or two kitchen chairs on the course,
and a stack of pillows. Then get two sticks to show
the start and finish lines.
Start by weaving right, then left through the shoe
boxes. Continue by crawling under the chairs, and
crawling (or jumping) over the pillows. At the
finish line, show a skill that you've learned in
class before you can cross (like three round kicks).
Want to add a few more things? Station a friend
somewhere along the course with a pillow. As you run
the course, you must duck under the pillow as it
swings your way. Or add two more shoeboxes at the
end of the course. Before crossing the finish line,
you must put a foot in each one and "skate" to the
end of the course. Whatever you choose, be safe and
creative - the only limit is your imagination!
