| Group Activity | Jumping on the bed by Asheba I busted out the parachute and a bin of teddy bears. The kids had to make the teddy bears jump on the bed! |
| Dance Song | Hot Lava Game I laid out bedsheets close together. The kids had to get on a “bed” and when the music started, they jumped from bed to bed. Once I stopped the music, they had to be on a bed or they would be in lava. |
