Jumping for Joy in Gan Aleph


Gan Aleph was super excited to get new jump ropes to play with just in time for Spring. This was a great new tool that the children could use to sharpen their gross motor skills. Many of the children were eager to learn how to jump rope. During our outdoor play time, Morah Lauren taught small groups of children how to use the jump ropes correctly and safely. The children learned how to bring the ropes back behind their heels and to jump when the rope came to their toes. In the coming weeks, we are also going to learn some new jump roping rhymes! Jump rope is a great way to have fun and exercise at the same time!
