Materials

• scarf or ribbon

1. Hand your little one a lightweight scarf, ribbon, or even a plastic bag. 2. "Hold it up and RUN! Watch what happens behind you." 3. The scarf will trail and flutter. They'll look back and giggle. 4. Try different speeds — walk, jog, sprint. How does the scarf change? 5. Stand still and hold it up. Does the wind move it? Which direction?
