Target Practice

**Warning this works best when no wind is present**

 

Are you ready for your little ones to work on some hand and eye coordination?  Target practice is a great way to practice just that.  Don’t worry no guns (or water guns) are used.

What you need:

1. Spray Bottle (preferably one with a stream knob instead of spray)
2. Ping Pong balls
3. Golf Tees
4. Foam Pool Noodle

Step 1:

Cut about 2 feet off of your pool noodle. This will be your base for target practice.

 

Step 2:

In as straight of line as possible  line up your golf tees horizontally across the pool noodle.

 

 

Step 3:

Use two golf tees in the back  and on in the front, placed at a diagonal slant to insure the pool noodle doesn’t move.

 

 

Step 4:

Add your ping pong balls to the golf tees. **Remember this activity works best with no wind**

 

 

Step 5: 

Have your child sit at various lengths away from the target with the spray bottle. The farther away they are the harder the targets will be to hit.

 

 

 

 

Now enjoy!  This is perfect for summer time. Caution for the backlash of giving a kid a spray bottle, you might just get wet yourself 😉
