Daily Idea #89: Hopscotch

Hopscotch is one of those games that brings back some great nostalgic memories. It’s a game that you can play outside and inside (with a little creativity). It helps gross and fine motor skills. It’s one of the best games ever (in my humble opinion).

If you don’t have an outdoor area where you can make your hopscotch boxes, find a space inside and make your boxes with painter’s tape/masking tape or by taping construction paper/plain white paper to the floor.

If you are going to play outside you can use those materials also or you can just go with the tried and true chalk method.

Once your hopscotch board is set up, use a small stone or a coin to toss onto a number in the board. Hop your way to that number space and hop back.
