Treasure hunts, dance away,
Obstacle courses, wild horse play.
Balloon keep-up, hula hoop,
Jump rope jumps, and scooter loops.
Tag you're it, hopscotch flips,
Water balloons, hands on hips.
"Jump high, bend low,"
Because Simon says so.
Nature walks, build forts high,
Paddleboards under the sky.
Volleyball,sandy beach,
Snowball fights on unplowed streets.
Skipping stones, kites in flight,
Through the day to starry night.
In this rhythm, we will find,
Exercise of the most fun kind.
