#2 Infinity Loop

This is great for the arms and the eyes to

cross midline. Make sure kids keep their
bodies still and only move their arms.

Start at the center – move up and around

to the left –> continuing around & back to
the center –> continuing up to the right –>
back around to the center –> continuing
up to the left and around to the center –>
up to the right and around to the center…

#3 Windmills

Kids stand tall with legs wider than shoulder width. Hold arms straight out to
the sides. Bend at the waste to touch opposite hand to the opposite foot.
Repeat other side.

Complete as many repetitions as desired. This exercise is also a

great movement (vestibular) activity to wake up the brain.

#4 Firecracker

Kids can sit or stand for this. They press their hands together in front of their
bellies (fingertips straight.)
Hands stay together and move in front of the body in a smooth side to side
position. As the hands are winding side to side, they’re also winding upward
above the head.

When they wind above the head as far as they can reach, kids clap hands
loudly (firework explosion.) Then, they wiggle the fingers down to make the
“sparkles.”

It’s fun to add a whistling sound to this exercise. (Why not add an oral
sensory component!) I like to make a whistle that gradually gets louder as the
“bottle rocket” is winding upward.
