Coach Peabody, counting

Stay low and shuffle sideways, without crossing your feet.

Side shuffle

Go somewhere · ages 6 to 14 · Counted in seconds · 🤫 Quiet

How to do it

  1. Knees bent and stay low the whole way.
  2. Feet never cross: push with the back one.
  3. Same number each way.
  • Nothing at all
  • Somewhere you can run a few steps and turn round.

Watch out for this

Bend your knees and stay low. Low is what makes it work.
Standing up tall and skipping sideways.

Make it fit you

The right version is the hardest one you can still do properly. That is not a kindness, it is how this works.

Easier

  • Walk it sideways instead of shuffling.

Harder

  • Touch the floor at each end before you come back.

Can't jump? Step sideways slowly instead, still staying low.
