Have a look at what you have around your home and create your own obstacle course. Maybe include something to balance on, some type of stepping stones and something to go through.
Use chalk to lay out a series of physical challenges appropriate to the needs of your child. This can be done in your garden or in the park
This is a fun game you play inside or outside. The stand is made from a paper plate and cardboard tube. Draw a cross in the centre of the plate the width of your tube. Cut along these lines – push your tube through and tape the flaps you have created in your plate to hold the tube in the correct place. You can make one or more of these targets. The rings are simply paper plates with the center cut out.
Why don’t you make your own carnival parade foot prints using bubble wrap. Of course listening to carnival music at the same time is optional!
You will need: Bubble wrap, cellotape, paint and a paint tray, paper, maybe some newspaper to protect your floor!
This is a painting exercise for those who don't like getting messy. You could use hands instead of feet, or both!
Have you a box and a ball at home? If so, you can make this fun game. All shapes of boxes will work so long as there is a hole big enough for the ball to come out. To make it harder put two holes in the box and then seal the box. This way you can put the ball in one hole but you won't be able to see the ball before you get it to fall out the other hole!

Here are some some parachute games. You don’t need a parachute – a sheet works just as well.
