Warning:

If you know me you know I am a wordy person, I always have a story to tell and I want moments fully documented. I want my kids to look back and have all the details, you can think of this site as our family journal, or more importantly the momma diary.

PE skills challenge day part 1

Today was PE skills challenge day at Katrena's school and parents were encouraged to come and watch and even participate if they felt inclined. It was so fun to watch these kids, they were so excited to show off for their moms and dads and had learned many skills. They demonstrated their skills through an obstacle course that they did over and over for 40 minutes, they were exhausted by the end and it was quite hot. Half way through they discontinued the outside portion and just continued with the inside ones. They had each of the kids start at a different point and parents went along with them.



Katrena started on the roller racers, she loves these and wants one of her own.


Next were the pull ups (no, there feet do not reach the ground). I love this look of intense concentration. After this they hopped back and forth over a line on the floor with both feet, walked on a balance beam, jumped hurdles, weaved in and out of cones, climbed through a tunnel, weaved around more cones, did two summer saults and a baby crawl.


Then they moved back outsid where she hula hooped, and then jump roped.


After jump roping, they did a couple of activities to show off their arm strength, again I love the look of intense straining on her face. She definitely gave it her all.
