Have them yell out the different shapes or letters as they jump so they can learn something along the way too.<\/p>\n<p><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-718\" src=\"https:\/\/highchairchronicles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/shape-jumps-toddler-game.jpg\" alt=\"image of shape jumps toddler game\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/highchairchronicles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/shape-jumps-toddler-game.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/highchairchronicles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/shape-jumps-toddler-game-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/highchairchronicles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/shape-jumps-toddler-game-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/highchairchronicles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/shape-jumps-toddler-game-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/highchairchronicles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/shape-jumps-toddler-game-200x200.jpg 200w, https:\/\/highchairchronicles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/shape-jumps-toddler-game-320x320.jpg 320w, https:\/\/highchairchronicles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/shape-jumps-toddler-game-480x480.jpg 480w, https:\/\/highchairchronicles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/shape-jumps-toddler-game-720x720.jpg 720w, https:\/\/highchairchronicles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/shape-jumps-toddler-game-735x735.jpg 735w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 96px), 720px\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-718 lazyload\" src=\"https:\/\/highchairchronicles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/shape-jumps-toddler-game.jpg.webp\" alt=\"image of shape jumps toddler game\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/highchairchronicles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/shape-jumps-toddler-game.jpg.webp 1000w, https:\/\/highchairchronicles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/shape-jumps-toddler-game-150x150.jpg.webp 150w, https:\/\/highchairchronicles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/shape-jumps-toddler-game-300x300.jpg.webp 300w, https:\/\/highchairchronicles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/shape-jumps-toddler-game-768x768.jpg.webp 768w, https:\/\/highchairchronicles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/shape-jumps-toddler-game-200x200.jpg.webp 200w, https:\/\/highchairchronicles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/shape-jumps-toddler-game-320x320.jpg.webp 320w, https:\/\/highchairchronicles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/shape-jumps-toddler-game-480x480.jpg.webp 480w, https:\/\/highchairchronicles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/shape-jumps-toddler-game-720x720.jpg.webp 720w, https:\/\/highchairchronicles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/shape-jumps-toddler-game-735x735.jpg.webp 735w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 96px), 720px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/highchairchronicles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/shape-jumps-toddler-game.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-3\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/p>\n<p>If you're near a beach, draw the shapes or letters in the sand with your toes.<\/p>\n<p>If you're <strong>indoors<\/strong>, draw shapes and letters on construction paper and stick it to the floor with tape.<\/p>\n<p>You can also print this game out if you don't feel like drawing shapes.

Race Across the House<\/h3>\n<p>We all line up on one side of the house, either by a door or a wall. My son says \"<strong>ready, set, GO!<\/strong>\" and we all \"race\" towards the other wall. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat again, because toddlers. It's more fun than it sounds!&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>When my son was younger, all he could say was \"<strong>weady<\/strong>\" instead of the full \"ready, set GO!\" Now that he is older, he can say all three words, and LOVES telling us exactly where to stand to start the next race. We call him \"<strong>muchacho bossypants.<\/strong>\"<\/p>\n<h3>5. Stepping Stones<\/h3>\n<p>These <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2ZXgRXv\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\"><strong>stepping stones<\/strong><\/a> are so neat. They help your toddler gain some balance, build their imagination, and get some of that never ending energy out. The cool thing is that they can be used <strong>indoors and outdoors.<\/strong> So if you want to sit on your deck and enjoy a margarita, bring these outside and let your kids hop and jump.

Dance Party<\/h3>\n<p>\"<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2Xg7LZd\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Alexa<\/a>, play dance music<\/strong>\" is all that it takes for our family to break out our dance moves. My son is a little too young to understand lyrics, so <em>any<\/em> dance music works for now. As he gets a bit older, I'll have to make a kid-friendly playlist. It's nice to listen to \"real\" music <strong>instead of the \"wheels on the bus<\/strong>\" for a change.<\/p>\n<h3>7. Yoga<\/h3>\n<p>Yes, yoga might not seem as fun as running around the house like a crazy person, but surprisingly kids love yoga, especially if they get to copy their parents. It's a good physical activity that will teach them balance and help them gain some strength, and <strong>might actually calm your kids<\/strong> down while at the same time allowing them to be active. So get out those yoga mats and start doing some easy yoga or stretches. Make sure you put a mat out for your kiddo too. There are a ton of <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2REFCoH\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\"><strong>fun yoga mats for kids<\/strong><\/a>. If your kid ends up loving yoga, it's definitely worth it to get them their own mat.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/YogaDirect-Fun-Yoga-Mat-Kids\/dp\/B002FMH4DC\/ref=as_li_ss_il?keywords=toddler+yoga+mat&amp;qid=1561738137&amp;s=gateway&amp;sr=8-7&amp;linkCode=li2&amp;tag=highchairchronicles-20&amp;linkId=eda041543c1ca70df86975fe53829502&amp;language=en_US\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow noreferrer\" class=\"tbf-azon-image-replace\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/41cbZYe4kAL._SL160_.jpg\" border=\"0\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter lazyload\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/41cbZYe4kAL._SL160_.jpg\" border=\"0\" data-mvt-skip=\"src\" loading=\"lazy\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/a>Personally, I would recommend doing regular adult yoga and seeing how much your toddler will follow you. Don't pressure them, they'll probably show an interest if they see their parents on the floor in downward dog.<\/p>\n<p>If you don't have time or don't feel like yoga, you can try this toddler yoga video. It's a bit too colorful and cheesy for my taste, but it will definitely entertain kids.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/YKmRB2Z3g2s\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<div>&nbsp;<\/div>\n<h3>8. Go on a Bear Hunt<\/h3>\n<p>Watch the video below. My son LOVES to go on a Bear Hunt. He is 2, so he can't quite keep up with the pace of the song (yet!). This is actually a <em>good<\/em> thing, because there is <strong>room for him to learn<\/strong> and get better as he gets older. Plus it teaches pretend play, the concepts of over\/under\/through, and is just lots of silly fun.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>A couple of quick tips for a successful bear hunt<\/em><\/span><\/strong>: 1) Watch this by yourself and learn as much of the song as you want to, and then sing it to your kid. If your kids see the video they might demand to see the video every time they see a browser open, which gets annoying real quick. 2) This is most fun with another adult if your toddler is on the younger side. My son doesn't talk enough yet to repeat this song, so it's much better when my husband repeats after me and my son tries as best as he can.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/E_pfVrVyNEk\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>9. Simon Says<\/h3>\n<p>Simon Says can be LOADS of fun if you get silly. If your kid is still young, then play a literal version of Simon Says (without trying to trick them), where they do what Simon Says. Mix up the usual prompts with things like: Simon says \"<strong>spin around!<\/strong>\" Simon says \"<strong>jump up and down!<\/strong>\" Simon says \"<strong>stand on one leg!<\/strong>\" Simon says \"<strong>dance!<\/strong>\" Simon says \"<strong>shake your bum!<\/strong>\" Simon says \"<strong>wiggle!<\/strong>\" Simon says \"<strong>act like a monkey!<\/strong>\"<\/p>\n<h3>10. Play fetch<\/h3>\n<p>It's not as mean as it sounds. Kids LOVE chasing after balls, and this gives you a break. Just make silly noises every time you throw or kick the ball. Throw the ball in different directions. Try <em><strong>\"Can mama throw it as far as that tree? Oh NOOO! She can't!<\/strong><\/em>\" or \"<strong><em>I'm going to throw it so high!<\/em><\/strong>\" \"<em><strong>I'm going to roll it on the ground<\/strong><\/em>\" Just get silly with it. You can try using crazy shaped sensory balls <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2Xh0VCI\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\"><strong>such as these<\/strong><\/a> for extra fun because they bounce all over the damn place.<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Rubbabu-Natural-Rubber-Sensory-Balls\/dp\/B01HAG75J0\/ref=as_li_ss_il?keywords=soft+sensory+ball&amp;qid=1561832786&amp;s=gateway&amp;sr=8-7&amp;linkCode=li2&amp;tag=highchairchronicles-20&amp;linkId=dd83aab94510c3960472dd5bbe68ffc4&amp;language=en_US\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow noreferrer\" class=\"tbf-azon-image-replace\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"\" border=\"0\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter lazyload\" src=\"\" border=\"0\" data-mvt-skip=\"src\" loading=\"lazy\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/a>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>11. Bubbles!<\/h3>\n<p>Just blow bubbles and have your toddler try to pop as many as they can. <strong>This never gets old<\/strong>. Bubbles are a <strong>lifesaver<\/strong>. The cheapo dollar store bubbles are just as much fun as fancy bubble machines, so this is a great activity for all budgets. I always have a small container of bubbles in our stroller in case we need to entertain my son when we are out and about, but we also do bubbles indoors too. We just make sure we are on a carpeted area so that the floor doesn't get slippery.<\/p>\n<h2>Looking for some quiet time activities so your kids can rest after all this activity?<\/h2>\n<p>Try these:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/highchairchronicles.com\/water-play-ideas-for-toddlers\/\">Water play ideas for toddlers<\/a> - my son will play with water quietly for hours!<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/highchairchronicles.com\/sequencing-puzzle-toddlers\/\"><strong>Free printable sequencing puzzles for toddlers<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<li><strong>12 <a href=\"https:\/\/highchairchronicles.com\/educational-shows-toddlers\/\">Educational TV shows for toddlers<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>So what do you think?
