Let's go out and play today,
And have some fun along the way,
We'll try new things we've never done,
And see what adventures we can come upon.

We'll wear our jumpers and head out,
To the river for some kayak clout,
Paddling fast and feeling free,
We'll explore the waters with glee.

If we feel like a little jog,
We'll run through fields like a big dog,
Feeling the wind rush through our hair,
We'll breathe deep and feel so aware.

Now let's try something on the ice,
Gliding and spinning, it feels so nice,
We'll twirl and swirl and spin around,
And feel like champions, safe and sound.

Next up is baseball, let's start an inning,
With our gloves on, we'll be winning,
In the infield, we'll catch and throw,
And feel like pros, don't you know?

But wait, let's also try some Judo,
We'll throw and grapple, it's a dojo,
With every move, we'll learn to flow,
And become stronger, don't you know?

For those who like hoops, let's play some ball,
Dribbling and shooting, we'll have a ball,
And when the game is finally through,
We'll high-five and say, "Great job, me and you!"

Let's also try Karate, just for fun,
We'll strike and block, one by one,
With each move, we'll become more skilled,
And feel empowered, ready and thrilled.

And now, for something quite unique,
A javelin throw, let's take a peak,
With all our might, we'll launch it high,
And watch it soar across the sky.

And finally, we'll fly a kite,
Up so high, it's such a sight,
Watching it dance and twirl around,
We'll feel so free, our feet off the ground.

So let's go out and play today,
And have some fun along the way,
With each new thing that we try,
We'll learn and grow and feel alive.
