4 Ways To Get Your Kids Up And Moving

We’re all about keeping everyone moving, feeling good and making it fun along the way. With kids still home from school, there’s an opportunity to see an adventure where you can make the most mundane things into exciting activities and daredevil challenges.

Enter the home obstacle exercises, which activity will be your favorite? Will you beat the balance beam to avoid the lava floor, out scuttle the creepiest of crawlies, or maybe release your inner secret agent? Here’s 4 different activities to get your Mini Mudders moving.

Along with our friends at Lidl, we asked our official Tough Mudder trainer and father of three Born Barikor to create some new videos for you that your kids will love.

Pick your favorite activity and repeat or mix and match

Keep your balance or face the lava

This Balance Beam activity is all about coordination and balance. Place rolled up carpets along the floor, with gaps between each to jump across. Top pro tip; stretch your arms out wide to counter balance yourself, and remember don’t touch that lava floor.

How creepy crawly can you be?

For the Creepy Crawly exercise you will need a little space, 75 feet to be precise. With only your hands and feet touching the ground, see how fast you can crawl 100m.

007 who- channel that secret agent

This is the Secret Agent squeeze challenge, using furniture and objects around the house (the more legs the better) create a circuit of obstacles, then see if you can climb over and under them. Stick on the Mission Impossible soundtrack to get you in the zone.

Wheeling good fun

For this Wheelbarrow activity you don’t need a real wheelbarrow, rather a human one. Grab your sibling, parent or pet, take hold of their legs and see who crosses the finish line first. Get practicing as this is a Lidl Mudder event challenge.
