The Movement
Get down low on all fours and imagine silently moving through the tall African grass. Hold still, and then, stand and charge as fast as you can. It’s called a cheetah charge and they are loads of fun to do again and again. If space is limited, you can pretend to run super-fast in place. Pick your knees up high and move your arms.
Thought Starters
Using their imaginations children can move around like cheetahs making friends, sounds, and gestures while they experience the joy that comes from pretend play.
