Toddler activities with masking tape

A roll of masking tape turns the floor into a game. A straight line to walk along, a hopscotch of squares, a road for the cars, a sticky strip to pull objects off. The activities here all use masking or painter's tape, which comes off floors and rugs without a mark. They are mostly gross motor, balance and jumping, with a few fine motor peeling games mixed in. Set-up is thirty seconds. Each activity has steps, what it builds and a way to make it harder as balance improves.
