Description: (I use a projector that displays these 3 options) 3 ways to play: Pick someone to start: They get to pick an activity and then draw a card. (some days I have rows pick, or all boy/girls, etc.) OPTION ONE: Number of activity to do: -Either way let them draw about 12-15 times – Some suggestions: bear hugs, crab push-ups, sit ups, push-ups, vertical jumps, jog, power walks, mountain climbers, line walkers, biker sit ups, boxer sit ups, crunches, bell jumps, jumping jacks, etc. OPTION TWO: -Either way let them draw about 12-15 times – Some suggestions: bear hugs, crab push-ups, sit ups, push-ups, vertical jumps, jog, power walks, mountain climbers, line walkers, biker sit ups, boxer sit ups, crunches, bell jumps, jumping jacks, etc. OPTION THREE: Take all the guess work out of it: Black=10 Red=15 Face card=Jumping Jack A=sit ups 2=Push ups 3=Mt. climbers 4=Bell Jumps 5=Vertical Jumps 6=Coordinators 7=crunches 8=Crab Push Ups 9=Lunges 10=Line Walker |

Concerns: Have kids know what activity they want to do before they pick a card, saves time and keeps them moving. |
