Warm Up

Age 3+

Sit with your eyes closed. Bring your hands together infront of you with one clap only. Start rubbing the palms of your hands together really really fast. Keep going until you feel like you are making fire with your hands. The harder and faster you do it the hotter your hands will get. Keep your body still and in your space. When your hands get hot put them over your eyes. Now make a silly face keeping your hands on your eyes.

When your hands aren’t hot anymore put them in your armpits. Is it warm there? Keep your hands in your armpits and start wiggling your whole body like a fish. You can lie on your back if you want. Wiggle as fast as you can. Now stop. Put your hands back over your eyes and make a humming noise through your nose. Keep your lips together and say “mmmmmmmmmm” for as long as you can with one breath. When your breath runs out take another big big breath and do it again “mmmmmmmmmm”. If you want to you can keep doing this sound until you feel warm all over.

When you are ready you can put your hands on your legs and open your eyes. Give yourself a big warm hug by wrapping your arms around your knees. Smile super big.
