KEEPING ACTIVE DURING LOCKDOWN #1

Hi Owai Families!

Here are some ideas from Sport Auckland for you to try with your family. Have fun and stay active.


CHALLENGE YOURSELF
GET CREATIVE
GET PHYSICAL
Sock Basketball
Ball up a few pairs of socks, get a laundry basket and take turns challenging members of your house.

Tip: to make it harder try a small basket or move further away

Question: What other household items could you use to play this game?

Soft Toy bowling

Find a long space like a hallway as a bowling alley.
Find 10 objects (not breakable) as pins. Set them up in a triangle.
Use a soft toy as a bowling ball and play! Challenge members of your household.

Question: Are you more successful the harder you throw or softer? Why?

Complete a Les Mills Born to Move workout.

These sessions are also on TV2 + 1 at 4pm each week day.

Question: Are workouts better with music or without music? Why?

Do 10 minutes of the following:
Meditating
Yoga
Pilates

Question: How did these activities make you feel?

The floor is Lava!
Create a course inside and outside your house using everyday objects. You can’t stand on the ground. 
Challenge others in your house to a time trial. Be safe!

Question: What physical skills did you need to use to get around the course?

Home Olympics #1
With members of your house (or against yourself) set up a series of Olympic events to compete in.
  • egg and spoon or hopping race
  • ‘keep it up’ with a toilet roll of rolled up sock. most wins
  • sock shot: with a rolled up sock choose target to throw at. farthest away wins.

Question:  Is there a difference when you are competing against a family member and when you are just challenging yourself? If so, what? and which do you prefer?
