Conversation Starter
This obstacle course activity provides a great opportunity to talk about optimism. During play, family members likely did not let themselves get down about a challenge; instead, they likely kept pushing through because they kept their eyes on the finish line. Is there anything you're going through where maintaining a positive focus and an eye on the finish line can help the process be more enjoyable?
Why This Matters
These easy obstacle course challenges are a great way to encourage active play or exercise.
