Quality Time
Fun, Educational Activities For Parents and Children - The times spent with your family and the people you love are precious and irreplaceable. Make tonight a special memory and learn something together!
This activity combines the rhythm of music with the comforting attention of a back massage. Choose partners, or draw names from a hat to decide who will give and who will receive each turn. Next, pick out some music with a definite beat that provides pleasant listening for everyone. One partner sits or lies on the floor while the second person uses his or her hands to beat out a rhythm on the other’s back.
Now it’s the other person’s turn!
Special Note: If you have someone in your family who is still developing impulse control, put a blanket or pillow over the person receiving the massage.
