Activities...

Here are a few activities that can be entertaining, but also help keep foot health in mind:

Study animal tracks in the snow
Make painted human foot prints on paper
Obtain rubber animal paws and press into dough or clay

Make a collage of footwear (cut from magazines, draw from reference books, collect from families and community)
Get into multicultural and historical aspects-what people wear on their feet in different parts of the world
Relate that to environment, weather, seasons, geography, gender, etc.

Sensory Walk
On long strip of poster paper, set up a path with different textures to walk on
Start with sand, move to hay or grass, then to cotton, then to paint or pudding to make footprints, then to shaving cream, and finally to water
Be sure to have several helpers to hold hands while walking
