Need a quick way to get the wiggles out. Try this transition activity. Use this tip any time children are in a whole group (or small group) setting and need to get up and stretch before moving into another activity. Brain research tells us that simple movement activities increase the flow of blood and oxygen to the brain thus improving short-term memory and exhibiting faster reaction time. So get up and stretch!
Reach for the Ceiling
Reach for the ceiling,
Touch the floor,
Stand up again,
Let’s do some more.
Touch your head,
Touch your knee,
Up to your shoulders,
Like this, you see?
Reach for the ceiling,
Touch the floor,
That’s all for now,
There is no more.
