sensory bins for my daughter to play with while I work out

Fitting in Workouts with Kids

Fitting in Workouts- Here’s What’s Been Working for Me Lately:

-chasing my daughter around the house or yard

-playing ball with her

-walking laps while she is on the playground or at sports practice

-cosmic kids yoga on YouTube

-kids dance workouts on YouTube

-take her on a walk around the block

-Give her a sensory bin or screen time while on the treadmill (no judgment)

Here are some quick sensory bins ideas I’ve pinned

I keep them in plastic shoeboxes, and switch them out every month. I’m really grateful to past-Hannah for organizing and saving them! I keep them stacked on top of the bookshelf in my office / home gym (we have a fold-up treadmill) / guest room.

Just a little bit of exercise each day makes me feel better physically and mentally!

Which is really why I make it a priority in my schedule–I like the energized, but more relaxed way it makes me feel. Not because I’m trying to lose weight or whatever (although that would be nice 🤪).
