This lesson plan focuses on enhancing toddlers' gross motor skills through a series of engaging running activities. The session begins with a warm-up that includes fun stretches and movements designed to prepare the children for physical activity. Participants then rotate through three main stations: running a designated track where they race to improve speed and coordination, navigating hula hoops that encourage jumping and agility, and completing a simple obstacle course that practices balance and movement control.
After the active portion, the children engage in a cool-down period to help regulate their heart rates while incorporating relaxation techniques. The session concludes with a closing circle, where kids can share their favorite activities and reflect on their experiences. The overall goal is to foster a love for running and movement, promote physical fitness, and encourage social interaction among peers in a lively and supportive environment.
