Wall Ball, Four Square, and mini-Olympics!

From playing wall-ball we have already moved on to playing Four Square.

Aai + Baba+ Aditya+ Shreya


So many fun teams to play with!  We play this now as part of almost every play room session!  When there is no 3rd and the 4th player available,  Aditya plays 2-square with his volunteer!

Yesterday, we tried something new!

Totally inspired after watching their first Hindi movie "Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikandar",  the kids agreed to play a "mini-Olympics".

Aditya, Shreya, Baba all participated in the following 7 games:
1. Running race from one end of the backyard to the other and back.  Shreya gold, Aditya silver, Baba who walked instead of ran, got the bronze.
2. Throwing a Frisbee (Oh... by the way... a new post on this topic coming up soon!)  Aditya gold, Baba silver, Shreya bronze.
3.  Taking aim with a tennis ball to knock out cricket stumps.   Baba gold, Shreya silver, Aditya bronze.
4. Soccer style free kicks.  Baba gold, Shreya silver, Aditya bronze.
5. Hockey style free kicks with a cricket bat.  Shreya and Baba shared the gold. Aditya got the Silver.
6. Hula Hooping.   Baba participated and got a bronze medal:)    Aditya did 7 seconds for his Silver medal.  Shreya had to be stopped at 140 seconds.
7. Gymnastics.  Baba opted out.   (No medal.)  Shreya got the gold with her amazing hand stands and flips.  Aditya was cute in trying to imitate her and got the silver!

We had lots of fun, and finished with fresh home-made strawberry banana ice cream!
