Indoor Gross Motor Games

As preschool teachers, we know the amazingness that is outdoor play. The fresh air, the movement, the unstructured play. But, when winter (or the rain) puts a halt to outdoor play, it can leave both children and teachers in a cooped-up, cranky state!So, today I wanted to share with you some Indoor Gross Motor ideas - many shared from fellow teachers in our Lovely Preschool Teachers Facebook Group. Just because the outdoors is off limits, doesn't mean we shouldn't be providing time and space for gross motor movement.Topics Discussed:Indoor Gross Motor Games and ActivitiesIndoor Gross Motor Toys we LoveResources Mentioned:Lovely Preschool Teachers Facebook Group PostConnect with AshleyFollow on Instagram @lovelycommotionJoin the Lovely Preschool Teachers Facebook GroupMore About the Lovely Preschool Teachers PodcastAre you a busy preschool teacher who loves gaining new ideas, perspectives, and inspiration for your classroom?
