Cooler weather is upon us here in Saskatchewan already. Our seasons are so messed up, we go from hot summer, to cool fall in a week. And then very quickly we end up in winter. It’s all summer, summer, summer, fall, winter, winter, winter, spring, and back to summer all over again. From one extreme to the next. Having indoor energy burning activities is a must for rainy days and cold winter days.

Simon Says
This is a favorite kids game. It can be fun and easy for parents to bust some energy out of their kids simply by calling our “Simon says ____. ” You can have your kids hopping in place or crab walking around the dining room table.
Red Light, Green Light
If you have a good amount of space for your kids to move back and forth red light, green light is fun. We like to change it up a bit with crab walking, wiggling like a worm, etc. Different movements to burn energy.

Painter’s Tape Hop Scotch
Painter’s Tape doesn’t leave a sticky residue behind so you can use it on the floors. Make a Hop Scotch for them to hop through in between subjects or on the way to a different room.
Music
Just turning music on in my house is enough for my kids to bust a move and burn energy. Plus it can be a fun workout for moms too!
