Part 1

• Ask the children, using the equipment available to make their own fairground ride in area 1.

• When the music stops they can stop in anyway they wish. 
• Progress to moving with a ball. 

• When the music stops or on command ask the children to get together with the person closest to them (like Bow and Billy, Goat and Gruff or Woody)
• Can they now travel around the area (Fairground) together in a team (just like Bow and Billy, Goat and Gruff or Woody) with a ball each. 
• Once they have finished their adventure through the fairground they go through the gate into Area 2 (The Antique Store)

Coaching points

• Encourage different ways to move if required - walk, run, hop, jump, on two parts of the body, on four parts of the body... 
• Encourage different ways to stop if required - on two feet, on one foot, on three parts of the body... 
• Encourage different ways to move with the ball, two hands, one hand, one foot, both feet, between the knees, bouncing...
