\nHow many hops\/jumps\/skips does it take to get from one side of the yard to the other? Everybody shout out their guesses and then see who\u2019s right!
\n[clear]<\/p>\n2<\/h2>\n
\nEverybody stands in a circle, facing into the center of the circle like in the classic game ring around the rosy. Have random people, one at a time, call out a fitness move that everybody has to do while moving the circle around and around. Good moves for this are jumping jacks, hops, skips, simulated jump roping. Then, when someone shouts out \u201call fall down,\u201d everybody has to do either 10 sit-ups or 10 pushups!<\/p>\n3<\/h2>\n
\nDesignate someone as IT. Whenever IT tags someone, that person has to do the fitness drill of IT\u2019s choice!<\/p>\n4<\/h2>\n
\nEverybody line up in a horizontal line facing the one person who is the \u201ccaller.\u201d Everybody runs toward the caller when (s)he says \u201cgreen light,\u201d and stops running when the caller says \u201cred light.\u201d When the caller says \u201cget fit,\u201d everybody moves their bodies in place as fast and crazy as they can until the caller says \u201cred light!\u201d First to make it to where the caller is standing wins!<\/p>\n5<\/h2>\n
\nMom or Dad is the Boot Camp Instructor and leads the kids in a series of burpees, pushups, jumping jacks, lunges, squats and more. Then, let the kids lead the boot camp!<\/p>\n
