Happy Alphabet Jogging Game For Kids

My kids together with I honey to run. Earlier this twelvemonth I shared almost our Family Jogging Club and how nosotros purpose it to driblet dead along our kids having fun piece they are moving. We also honey to exercise movement games.

Last calendar week I created an alphabet together with making words jogging game that my kids had a peachy fourth dimension playing.

This activeness solely required comfy shoes, foam alphabet letters, together with a large infinite to run around. 

(Side note: My kids honey Crocs together with thus exercise I because they tin sack lay them on past times themselves. Do you lot bring some other favorite shoes that are slow for kids to lay on together with slow to run in? Add them inwards the comments please)


To play the game the start matter the kids had to exercise was scatter foam alphabet letters all around our cul-de-sac on the pavement.

Next the kids institute a spot on our "starting line" on the sidewalk together with and thus raced around the cul-de-sac to alternative upward v or half dozen of their favorite letters.

Once the kids collected their favorite letters, they raced over to a spot past times our driveway to beak almost the letters they found. Then they tried to brand some words amongst their alphabet letters. They wasted no fourth dimension finding some goofy words to spell (piw = poo? thus they were laughing for awhile almost that one).

While my five-year-old spelled his advert together with made several words he'd learned at kindergarten (sight words, discussion household unit of measurement words, etc), my almost three-year-old talked amongst me almost each missive of the alphabet she institute together with what words started amongst that missive of the alphabet together with places she'd seen the letters before.

After nosotros spelled a few words, nosotros ran the letters dorsum to their spots on the pavement, together with thus nosotros ran around together with grabbed novel letters. Once nosotros had novel letters nosotros ran dorsum together with tried to spell dissimilar words. The longer nosotros played, the smarter my boy got at making certain to guide a few vowels and consonants instead of but selecting consonants. 

My three-year-old together with I also went on a advert jog together with jogged around trying to detect the letters inwards her advert that nosotros spread all over the cul-de-sac. 

While nosotros played, I jogged together with pushed the babe inwards our jogging stroller... thus I got a workout too!

We played in ane lawsuit to a greater extent than together with in ane lawsuit to a greater extent than until nosotros were all sufficiently worn out together with and thus nosotros ran around together with picked upward all of the alphabet letters.
