Doing the limbo.

This morning some of the children were having fun exploring their dance moves so Liz decided to test their flexibility and introduce them to the limbo. 

Trying out a new activity can be scary when you dont know quiet how it works so we encouraged the children to take a responsible risk and give it a go. As they become more confident they began cheering each other on and managing their impulsivity as they took turns.

As the children watched each other try and get under the broom handle they began exploring their creativity as the handle got lower and lower to the ground.  some explored trying different ways of moving their head to see if they would get under without falling over while others crawled along the ground. When things are difficult don’t give up, ka pakeke te haere kaua e hemo.

Lots of fun was shared as we heard the children laughing and giggling when I suggested Liz give it a go. 

The children then showed manaakitanga care and respect as they began holding the broom handle for each other. Ka pai
