GINGERBREAD Move & Learn Gross Motor Games

$3.50

Run, run as fast as you can!  These gingerbread themed gross motor games are the perfect addition to the preschool, pre-k, or kinder classroom to make it all the way to winter break while keeping learning activities fun!  The printable Gingerbread Gross Motor Games encourage taking age appropriate risks, movement, coordination, balance, and skills that help with every day big kid tasks.  These move and learn activities are a great addition to the classroom or at home to help get the wiggles out, strengthen gross motor skills, and set up a positive learning environment for all types of learners.

The move & learn activities all include gross motor practice which is key to developing every day skills (getting out of bed, eating, getting dressed, playing sports, sitting in a seat at school, carrying a backpack, and more!) needed to be a successful big kid.

They are set up to go along with your gingerbread or Christmas theme at the beginning of the wintry season and can easily be added to circle time or a transition time during your day.  The gross motor games are designed for 3-6 year-olds.

The Gingerbread Gross Motor Games are the next set in our ENDLESS Themed Gross Motor Games Bundle.
