Fun Gross Motor Skills Activity with Cake Boards and Giraffe Ribbon
They did a fun gross motor skills activity at Here We Grow Preschool! It was a fantastic way for the preschoolers to learn about size, measurement, gross motor planning, and multi-step directions. The kids loved stepping around with their big boots made out of the cake boards and giraffe ribbon--you can do this activity too!
