Fun Chalk Activities For Young Artist

Playing outside with chalk is a great way to lighten the indoor boredom right now. From chalk your walk happy messages to obstacle courses for siblings to play endless hours of fun. Some chalk artists are taking things to the next level and creating entire games in their driveways with chalk...

 

Hopscotch.

An oldie (as in kids have been playing it for over hundreds of years) but a definite goodie. The rules are simple and kids can either draw their own course with the chalk or have a parent help.

 

1.Use your imagination and draw the boxes to be jumped in various colors and shapes.
2.Use the Toysmith Jumbo Sidewalk Chalk as the marker, beanbags, buttons, or small plastic toys.
3.Once your children have conquered hopping the course, see if they can double hop on each box or use varying feet for hopping on the way up and the way back the course.

 

Why walk if you can jump anyhow?
