All you need to do is imagine some fun summer activities, then use your creativity to make the movements you would do to perform the activity.<\/li>\n<li>For example:\n<ul>\n<li>Pretend you are doing the \u201cswim\u201d by circling your arms forward as though you are doing the front crawl, the back crawl, the breaststroke or the butterfly. Try \u201cswimming\u201d for at least one minute without stopping.<\/li>\n<li>Pretend you are hiking by marching with your knees up high and swinging your arms at your sides. \u201cHike\u201d at a fast pace for 1 minute.<\/li>\n<li>Pretend you are playing beach volleyball by doing a \u201cblock\u201d. Jump up straight in the air, arms up high, and pretend that you are blocking the ball. Do 10 of these high jumps.<\/li>\n<li>Pretend you are surfing. Place your arms out to the side and sway from side to side, then jump and face the other direction. \u201cSurf\u201d for at least a minute.<\/li>\n<li>Pretend you are rock climbing. Reach one arm up as high as you can into the air and bring your same knee up as high as you can, then switch sides (same arm and knee reaching up).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>What other summer activities can you think of? Try to create some movements or actions for those activities. Have fun!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With the hot weather that we have been having lately, it feels as though we have passed by spring and jumped right into summer.
