Copy me – show your child different ways to move

What to do 

• Find a space at home and take off your shoes and socks.  
• Help your child to take off their shoes and socks too then say, “Copy me!”  
• Move in different ways, starting with something you know your child can do such as walking on tiptoes before trying something a little bit harder such as walking on your heels.  
• Keep going for as long as your child seems interested, then either stop or suggest they take the lead. If you do this, tell them to move however they want to and you'll copy them. This might keep them interested for a little bit longer!
