Nature Days outdoor learning resource – Obstacle course
My challenge for you today is to design your own outdoor Obstacle course in your garden.
Think about the types of areas you have in your garden.
Do you have different levels or steps you can use as part of the obstacle course?
Do you have equipment such as trampolines, hoops, balls, planks and slides you could use?
Think about the route you need to take. Where will the start and finish line be?
Do a risk assessment. What could go wrong? How could you get hurt? How could you hurt the environment?
How might you make you obstacle course safer?
Time yourself running the course and maybe challenge your family to have a go too.
You could try doing a commentary and filming your family. Look at my obstacle course and commentary on you tube.
Once you have all had a go think about how you might improve your obstacle course to make it more challenging.
How might you do part of it blindfolded or backwards?
You might also design the ultimate obstacle course in you garden on a story board. How would you like zip-lining over your house, or skiing down the roof?
Don’t try this!! Just draw a picture or you could photo shop a picture of you doing it!
Don’t forget to share photos of your obstacle course.
Tweet any photos of your obstacle course #NatureDays or share on the Nature Days facebook page or email them to me. naturedays@reynoldston.com
