    Obstacle Course

  1. Make an obstacle course out of pillows. Then you can:
    • Crawl through the spaces.
    • Wiggle on your tummy through the spaces.
    • Roll through the spaces.
    • Sommersault through the spaces.
    • Tiptoe through the spaces.
  2. When the child is confident using pillows, then use pieces of furniture or large toys to make the obstacle course. Be sure to include places to climb over, jump over, crawl under, etc.
