Transition <strong>Activity</strong> Movement<br />
Walking down the Street<br />
As I was walking down the street<br />
Down the street<br />
A lovely friend I chanced to meet<br />
High ho high ho high ho<br />
Note – This game supports the child who wants to participate<br />
but isn’t quite ready to make movement suggestions<br />
Many of the activities listed as every day<br />
activities in Table 1 (page P.2) can be setup<br />
in areas where children travel between when<br />
transitioning from one activity to another. <strong>For</strong><br />
example a jumping challenge on the way from<br />
outdoor play to the bathroom to wash hands<br />
before lunch.<br />
I Move We Move, <strong>The</strong> <strong>Physical</strong> Acitivity <strong>Handbook</strong> – Preschoolers, Edition 1 August 2009<br />
<strong>The</strong> children sit in a circle, one child is chosen<br />
from the volunteers to have the first turn. <strong>The</strong><br />
child thinks of a way to walk and performs<br />
this while the other children sing and keep<br />
the rhythm.<br />
When the friend is chosen, they both perform<br />
the previous action or movement. <strong>The</strong> other<br />
children continue singing, clapping and<br />
stamping etc.<br />
Depends on the chosen activity.<br />
