DIY Obstacle Course Menu

$5.00

🏃 Turn everyday furniture and floor space into a full sensory-motor workout.

Designed with a pediatric occupational therapist’s eye for movement and regulation, this 9-card obstacle course poster gives kids (and the grown-ups building the course) a simple visual menu of gross motor stations — no gym equipment required. Each activity options provides sensory input that supports nervous system regulation!

☀️What’s included:

• 9 obstacle course stations: jump, crash, puzzle, couch, stepping stones, climb, slide, crawl, balance

• High-resolution printable file, ready to print and use as a reference card or cut apart into a choice board

• Bright, clear icons kids can “read” at a glance, even before they’re reading words

✨ Why it works:

• Gross motor input supports body awareness, coordination, and self-regulation — a core piece of pediatric OT and sensory processing work

• Movement breaks help kids reset attention and energy between homework, therapy tasks, or transitions

• Mix and match stations to build a new course every time, using couch cushions, pillows, tape lines, or existing playground equipment

• Gives kids ownership: let them pick the order and “design” their own course

• Including a simple puzzle (6-9 pieces) offers a natural end to the obstacle course, supporting the transition away from this activity

✔️ Great for:

• Home movement breaks and rainy-day energy release

• OT, PT, and sensory gyms

• Classrooms and PE for brain-break stations

• Birthday parties and playdates

🌱 Details:

• Instant digital download — no physical item will be shipped

• Print at home, at a local print shop, or through an online printing service

A note from Dr. Meghan, the Occupational Therapist and designer:

Kids regulate through movement before they regulate through words. This poster was built to make that movement easy to set up and repeat — a go-to for burning energy, building body awareness, and having fun while doing it.
