Somewhere along the way, my son saw people trying to complete an obstacle course. I think it was on t.v. on one of those kids shows. People were falling down, getting knocked into the water and tripping into mud pitts and my son loved it. We noticed that he started trying to build his own obstacle courses around the house and constantly wanting to talk about them.
It only seemed fitting that we build him an obstacle course for his birthday party. We reserved the local park pavillion and started planning. In this case, it is kind of tricky because we don't want anyone to get hurt and these little guys are so accident prone. Here is what we have come up with so far:
- crawling through a 5 ft. long tunnel that rolls around on the grass
- hopping through inflatable tires
- crawling through a tunnel of balloons (made by attaching lots of balloons to a folding table)
- zig zagging through orange cones while getting shot by water guns
- driving a toddler little tikes car that is too small for these guys (the kind that you use your feet to go) from point A to B
- kicking a soccer ball into the net
We are still coming up with the course and hopefully will have a few more ideas. I will post an update with pictures as soon as the party happens. Wish us luck!
