Animal walks are fun ways for children to strengthen muscles through activities. You can do relays using animal walks (bear walk across the room/yard/floor then snake crawl back), clean up toy area doing animal walks (crab walk to pick up toy and place toy on stomach and crab walk it over to the toy box without it falling off), seal walk down the hall to get ready for story time/bedtime, or kangaroo hop to the bathroom to brush teeth.
