    This activity promotes balance and stability as children move around the space and form shapes called out by the coach such as letters, animals, and objects. The coach can specify the number of children to form each shape from one to three. Variations include letting children call the shapes or performing them lying down. The coach should watch for literacy barriers, lack of core strength, inability to cooperate, and overuse of muscles that disrupt balance. Benefits include concentration, cooperation, and connection to others.
