Pillow Obstacle Course
Two chairs, a pile of pillows and a blanket turn the living room into a course with a tunnel, stepping stones and a balance beam. Your child designs it first and runs it afterwards.
What you need
- Pillows and sofa cushions
- 2 chairs
- A blanket
- A belt or scarf to mark the finish line
How to play
- Let your child pick four obstacles: crawl under, step over, balance along, jump across.
- Build them in a row — two chairs with a blanket on top make the tunnel.
- Walk the whole course together once slowly and agree on the rules.
- Run it for time, then run it in the opposite direction.
- Swap one obstacle for a new idea and race again.
