[00:00:17.910]Toddlers and preschoolers
[00:00:19.130]learned so well when their brains
[00:00:21.160]and their bodies are active.
[00:00:22.800]This is an easy activity that you can do
[00:00:24.930]to get their bodies and their brains engaged.
[00:00:27.560]You can go outside
[00:00:29.090]and find a stick
[00:00:30.910]or something to draw with.
[00:00:32.750]We decided to use chalk today,
[00:00:34.430]but you could also use a stick
[00:00:35.740]to draw on the sand or the mud.
[00:00:37.580]You are gonna go and draw a line,
[00:00:39.320]and then the children are going to see
[00:00:41.490]if they can follow it with their bodies.
[00:00:43.688](upbeat music)
[00:00:46.130]You can also get older siblings involved
[00:00:48.720]by helping to make the line.
[00:00:50.910]Toddlers are also really excited to help,
[00:00:53.590]so give them a piece of chalk
[00:00:55.140]or a stick and they can help create that line as well.
[00:00:58.699](upbeat music)
[00:01:06.350]After you are done creating that line,
[00:01:08.700]encourage your child to follow the line
[00:01:10.920]with their bodies,
[00:01:11.800]and move their bodies in different
[00:01:13.500]ways along your line.
[00:01:14.848](upbeat music)
[00:01:17.596](mumbles)
[00:01:18.429]You did it!
[00:01:19.636](rhythmic music)
[00:01:21.907]Cici's walking.
[00:01:22.761]All right.
[00:01:23.594]Willow's turn.
[00:01:24.427](upbeat music)
[00:01:25.350]Willow walk on the line.
[00:01:26.787](laughing)
[00:01:27.620]I can.
[00:01:28.750]Walk carefully.
[00:01:29.897](upbeat music)
[00:01:31.080]Keep the toe on the line.
