Try some activities using only one hand such as catching a ball and rolling their necker (try preferred and 'other' hand.Is one better?). Try other activities that are not normally associated with hands such as running and jumping with hands behind back. Discuss. Focus on ways Beavers adapted (e.g used feet or chin to hold necker, trapped beanbag with body, swung body more. Share photos of athletes and how they ave adapted to excel at their sports.
