NKTBGPK008 | Jungle Parade: Level up
By Dr. Rajeev Tamhankar and Riddhi Chincholikar
Jungle Parade is an engaging movement-based activity where children imitate jungle animals while marching in a fun parade. It builds upon the Peekaboo activity by incorporating structured movement, role-play, and coordination. Kids will enjoy stomping like elephants, hopping like frogs, and swinging like monkeys while exploring their imagination.
- Gather children in an open space and explain the concept of a jungle parade.
- Assign each child an animal role or let them pick their favorite jungle creature.
- Play lively jungle-themed music and encourage children to move like their chosen animals.
- Introduce props like animal masks, soft toys, or scarves to enhance the experience.
- Guide them through a parade path, incorporating fun obstacles like crawling under “vines” (ropes) or jumping over “logs” (pillows).
- Conclude with a group roar, clap, or cheer to celebrate their parade performance.
- Enhances gross motor skills and body coordination.
- Encourages imaginative play and self-expression.
- Improves listening and following instructions.
- Fosters social interaction and teamwork.
- Use upbeat jungle music to keep the energy high.
- Encourage expressive animal sounds to make it more immersive.
- Introduce a storytelling element by describing a jungle adventure as they parade.
- Keep the activity flexible, allowing children to switch animal roles midway for variety.
