"Balloon volleyball" 😂🎈 (Eng/Esp)
English version
This time I focused my attention on his fascination with playing with balloons. I had blue and green balloons in the house, inflated three of each and released them into the air. Alma was happy, running around shouting "Bomba". Although she also likes to play with her plastic balls, the fun is different, given the behavior of the balloons when manipulated.
To help develop the coordination of her movements, I looked for her laundry basket 😂 and instructed her to put each balloon in there, of course, passing the balloon from one hand to the other and starting from the opposite wall to the basket.
I observed that this task was successful by her face of happiness every time she basket a balloon in the basket, she raised her arms, spun around and shouted in victory, like a soccer player when scoring a goal. Once she collected all six balloons she asked me to repeat the activity and I couldn't refuse seeing her so enthusiastic and happy, so we both participated in another round of "balloon volleyball" 😂, although my role was to applaud from the stands.

Una nueva aventura de juego y diversión me trae de regreso a la comunidad. Procuro realizar distintas actividades con la pequeña Alma para distraerla, estimularla y desarrollar sus habilidades motoras, entre ellas realizar algunas "tareas" en un cuaderno, luego, les compartiré sus avances.
En esta ocasión fijé mi atención en su fascinación por jugar con globos. En la casa tenía azules y verdes, inflé tres de cada uno y los lancé al aire. Alma estaba feliz, corriendo de un lado a otro gritando "Bomba". A pesar de que también le gusta jugar con sus pelotas plásticas, la diversión es diferente, dado el comportamiento de los globos al ser manipulados.
Para contribuir a desarrollar la coordinacion de sus movimientos, busqué la cesta de su ropa 😂 y le indiqué que tenía que introducir cada globo allí, por supuesto, pasando el globo de una mano a otra e iniciando el recorrido desde la pared contraria a la cesta.
Observé que esta tarea fue exitosa por su cara de felicidad cada vez que encestaba un globo en la cesta, alzaba los brazos, daba vueltas y gritaba en señal de victoria, como un jugador de fútbol al anotar un gol. Una vez que recolectó los seis globos me pidió repetir la actividad y no pude negarme al verla tan entusiasmada y alegre, así que ambas participamos en otra ronda de "volleybasquet con globos" 😂, aunque mi papel era aplaudir desde la tribuna.

loved how you turned the laundry basket into a goal for Alma, that’s such a smart way to build coordinatoin. Her victory spins after each point made me smile, and and the blue and green mix keeps it lively. Balloon volleyball at home beats any gym class, pure joy in motion.
Thank you for your valuable comment. I just let the ideas flow and we achieved a pedagogical and fun activity. Alma was happy basketing the balloons and that gave me great satisfaction.
so glad it clicked for both of you. That simple flow turned into real play ,and Alma basketing the balloons is just perfect. It builds focus and and coordination, plus a lot of giggles. Would she enjoy a round where you call the color before she shoots?
She already recognizes those colors and pronounces them in her own way (erde and zul), so if she would be able to identify them easily.
so cute that she’s already saying erde and zul. That call-out version would defnitely make it extra fun and and sneak in some focus too. Maybe you cue a color mid-bounce and she zooms it to the basket?
That's a good idea, thanks for the suggestions.
It's very nice to see a mother and daughter bond..Good that you are very creative in finding an activity like this..This is really helpful especially improving their motor skills.
It was a lot of fun, seeing his smiling face was my greatest satisfaction. I must always look for activities that entertain her and at the same time stimulate her on a cognitive and motor level.
Me encantan los niños porque se entretienen fácilmente y además buscas la manera que el juego sea educativo y de provecho para ella. Execelente.
Gracias, fue una actividad recreativa y pedagógica. Lo mejor es que ella estaba feliz y para mí es lo más significativo.
His face full of joy is the best payment in life.
🥰🥰🥰
Just like that, you described it very well. Thanks for stopping by. Regards.
Haha she's really happy, so cute.😍
Their shouts of euphoria could be heard in the street as well 😂.
The child is so pretty and adorable
Thank you very much 🫂
Que bella se ve que disfruto, es satisfactorio como son felices con actividades tan sencillas
Ella mostró su gran sonrisa, le encanta jugar con globos y acá los encestó con facilidad 🥰.
Excelente manera de estimular su área motora, lo mejor de todo es que es una actividad que le llamó la atención y al incluir los globos la lleno de diversión y mucha alegría, es increíble como con cosas que tenemos a la mano contribuimos también a su desarrollo y crecimiento cognitivo.
Así es, en casa tenemos muchos materiales que podemos usar para inventar o elaborar actividades recreativas que sean de su agrado. Sigo en esa búsqueda. Gracias por tu comentario 😊
So cute! I love how you made a simple game into a fun learning activity for Alma. I can imagine her happy dance every time she gets a balloon in the basket. 😁 I do the same with my little one too. simple games really make them happy.
It was a different and fun activity, he loved the excitement of popping the balloons, his shouts of happiness shook the whole house 😂.
Que linda , se ve que disfruto su juego, que bonita experiencia, es tan chevere ver a nuestros hijos disfrutar de sus actividades.
Así es, amiga, hay que disfrutar con ellos y contagiarnos con sus sonrisas.
She is enjoying your indoor activity. I can see it in her eyes. Good job momma!
Thank you for this beautiful comment. She was happy and that's the important thing.
