In a living room, play room, or bedroom, pretend that the floor, certain colored tiles, or a carpet/rug is “hot lava” and work together to navigate the room. This is a great opportunity to initiate imaginative play such as creating “bridges” and “tunnels” out of blankets, pillows, stuffed animals or other objects in the room. This activity also addresses balance, coordination and can give proprioceptive sensory input by jumping, leaping and crashing into blankets, pillows and other furniture. (Be careful if placing pillows/blankets on a wood or tile floor!)
