The Metaphor of an Obstacle Course

Looking at a rainy week and need to keep kids active! Phew, adds to the challenge of this situation.
Well here is a fun activity!

Get a roll of masking tape. Make an obstacle course. Anywhere in the house.
Then try to get through it!


Laugh, giggle, work through the time you "get stuck by the tape", talk about how that might be challenging.



Then apply it to life! 

We just got handed an obstacle course. And lief will continue to hand us all obstacle course, this is life!

But how we respond to the course: if we laugh when we get stuck, rather than cry.
If we play and have fun, and work together, talk it through (careful you are about to get stuck bend down lower, reach higher, etc.), we will make it through this.

Help your kids learn life lessons. We have the opportunity to all come out of this stronger!
