Set up
Put a start cone. Put a far cone 3 big steps away.
You need: A soft ball, 2 cones, bottles or shoes. Space: a flat area about 3 m by 3 m.
What to do
- Stand at the start cone.
- Tap the ball gently as you walk.
- Walk it to the far cone.
- Turn round and walk back.

Play safe
- Play on a flat, dry, clear place.
- Wear shoes that stay on your feet.
- A grown-up watches nearby.

Maths: Count your trips. Say the number.
Note for Parents & Teachers
Builds close control: small touches and keeping the ball near the feet. Praise the soft taps, not the speed.
