Teaching Tips

Emphasize going slowly and maintaining the round shape of a wheel.
-
To make things more interesting, have several wheels going in different directions so that they need to roll around the different wheels as well.
-
You could have some fun with this game by going around the outside of a small building and treating the flower beds as walls, the circle rotating against the edge of the flower beds so that plants are not destroyed.
