Equipment: A quiet field in the morning is ideal. Can be indoors.

Time: Total ~ 5-10 minutes.

Brief description:Fun physical warm-up. In a circle, everyone starts as a small seed (crouched, hunched), then slowly sprouts and grows, eventually flowering towards the sun (tippy toes, arms outstretched). Repeat, getting faster each time, leading eventually to seeds in unison jumping into the air and letting out loud "ahhhs"!

The idea is to grow as slowly

as possible, which is very

challenging, e.g., children will

experience thigh burn and

are usually to do things fast.

This forces a mental slow

down so really emphasize

that it is about growing as

slowly as possible.

• Encourage children to let out a big sigh as they are flowering, then relax.

• Next time, a bigger sigh. And maybe another time, really big sigh, and a little jump in the air.

• Then do it faster, this time jumping into the air and letting out a big "ahhh!"

. Continue brochure text here. Continue

• In a circle, demonstrate being a seed (crouched and hunched as much as possible).

• Everyone adopts the seed position.

• Then imagine that you are slowly going to grow into a flower.
