Surfing Warm Up

  • Pre K/K

  • No equipment needed

Development Goal

Develop listening skills.

Before You Start

Equipment Needed:  CD player, the song Wipe Out

  • Have players spread out with plenty of personal space.
  • Start the music.

How to Play

  • When the drums are playing have the player do a specific movement (pretend to drum to the beat, jog in place, dance, etc.).
  • When the music changes, have the players pretend to be surfing. Have them stretch and lean in different ‘surfing’ positions, working on maintaining their balance.
  • The activity will repeat itself as the music style in the song changes.
