DIY MATERIALS : HOPSCOTCH

I have a young client who is constantly on the move, so we've played a few versions of hopscotch recently to get some of that energy out.  Here's what we did:

Color Hopscotch:

A friend recently told me how she made a dice out of different colors of construction paper, then laid those same colors of construction paper on the floor as hopscotch spaces.  Whichever color her client rolled, he got to hop to a space of that color.  Each space had a target word or sound to produce.  I had to try this with my kiddo, and it didn't disappoint!

Bubble Wrap Hopscotch:

I had some left over bubble wrap from a recent move.  I simply printed numbers 1 through 10 on separate sheets of paper, then taped bubble wrap on top to make hopscotch spaces.  My client rolled dice to see which number to hop on.  Each space also had a target word or sound to produce.  He likes activities that involve smashing and tearing, so I wasn't surprised that the popping was a hit!
