Balance Game with Apples



10 Apples Up on Top!

Let’s continue with our apple theme for the month! This time we will look at a fun balance game that goes with the book……

This book has a lot of fun inspiration for classroom activities! 

You can have students sit on the floor and pick one student to place bean bags (1 at a time) onto another student’s head. You can work in teams of 2 so that everyone gets a chance to play!See how long he or she can sit without the bean bags falling off!

You can use this in standing (same concept at sitting) or even walking with the bean bags from 1 side of the classroom to the other. This could be a fun rainy day relay game during circle time!

These activities work on body awareness, balance, team work, counting, and even strengthening!

Happy reading and playing together!!!!
