We are temporarily reviving our Children's Blog to provide some resources for families who are stuck at home during this period of social distancing due to COVID-19. We will put together a variety of activities for you and your families every day at 1:00 pm. Watch for weekend Boredom Busters on Saturday and/or Sunday. See which ones you can do, and if you get the chance, share the results with us on any of our social media platforms, which will be listed at the bottom of this blog.
This weekend's theme is Get Moving!
Family Yoga: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=family+yoga
Fun for the whole family, and gets your body read to move around and enjoy the day! Find the best place in the house to do this together as a family. If you have an HDMI cable, connect your computer to the TV to watch on the big screen.
Pokemon Go - Around the Lake
There are many active Pokémon Go hot-spots in Sylvan Lake, especially along Lakeshore Drive. Being mindful of social distancing, and of course the weather, bundle up, grab your phone, and trek down to the lake to "catch 'em all!".
When you get home, check out some free Pokémon colouring pages!
And even if you don't play Pokémon Go, it's still a great time to bundle up and head out for a walk. Fresh air is good for you! Take some pictures while you're out, and share them on Instagram with the hashtag: #SylvanLakePhotoWalk
DANCE PARTY!!!
Let loose and get ready to wiggle! Turn up the tunes and get those hips waggling! Dance like nobody's watching, even though your kids definitely are! For real though, your kids take their cues from you, so don't worry about looking silly, and just have fun!
Let us know who has the best moves, you or your kids!
Hopefully these activities help break the day and get your family engaging in some fun physical activity.
If your kids loved these activities, feel free to send us feedback or pictures on any of our social media platforms, linked below.
