How it works
- 1~30s
Let's start with a warm-up run! Point to a flower that's about 20 feet away and say 'Let's go get that one together!' Run alongside your child to the first flower. As you run, watch their arm movements. At this age, we want to see bent elbows and arms swinging opposite to legs — that's efficient running form. Tell me what you notice about your child's arm coordination.
Watch for: Child runs with bent elbows and arms moving opposite to legs, showing coordinated running form.
- 2~40s
Now let's make it more challenging! Point to a flower that requires your child to run around a tree or bush to reach it. Say 'This one is tricky — you have to go around this tree!' Watch how your child controls their running — does they slow down to turn? Can they dodge the obstacle smoothly without stopping completely? This shows running control beyond just straight-line speed.
Watch for: Child demonstrates control while running by adjusting speed, changing direction, and navigating obstacles smoothly.
- 3~45s
For our final challenge, let's combine skills! Place a flower where your child has to run quickly to it, pick it up without fully stopping, turn, and run back to you. This tests dynamic coordination — running, bending, turning, and returning all in one fluid sequence. Watch how your child manages this complex movement chain. Does they maintain balance? Can they execute the sequence without falling or losing momentum?
Watch for: Child coordinates multiple movements in sequence — running, stopping/starting, bending, turning — while maintaining balance and control.
