Hey there! I am still working on my Kid Kit, I will be posting it in the next week so be sure to check back here soon! Meanwhile, check out my baby-sitting activity below!
STACEY’S MUSICAL MATS
Great for groups of 3 to 8 children. This lighter version of musical chairs removes the usual roughhousing involved. In addition to a music player, you will need large pieces of paper equal to the number in your group, a marker, an additional sheet of 8.5 x 11 paper, and a bag.
Step 1:
Draw a number on each large sheet. Create up to eight of these and place them in a circle along the ground.
Step 2:
Create 8 equal-sized boxes on your regular 8.5 x 11 sheet of paper. Write one number from each mat into each box.
Step 3:
Cut out the boxes with their numbers and drop the 8 numbers into your bag.
Step 4:
Let the game begin! The children will march to the sound of the music you play, going in a circle along the mats. When the music stops, they will, too. A number will then be randomly drawn from the bag. If this number matches the number on the child’s current mat, they’re out! The last person standing wins.
