Instructions

This one's really easy to set up. All you need is a driveway, a piece a chalk and a tennis ball.

Challenge the kids to a game of old school 'four square'.

Step it up:

• Use a smaller ball or bigger 'squares'.

Instructions

Use or make a netball ring in your backyard.

Challenge yourself to shoot for 30 minutes and score 50 goals.

Make it fun, by having a family member rebound and pass the ball to you, before swapping over. Try shooting for different locations and add a pivot before you shoot.

Step it up:

• Set your timer for 30 minutes, score 50 goals, then go again and try to beat your time.
• Move further away from the net.
• Increase the number of goals you go for in 30 minutes.
• Add in some obstacles to run around before you shoot.

Instructions

Get out and about in your local parkland or the bush.  Take water and a snack in a backpack and go bush bashing for 30 minutes or an hour. Even grown-ups like playing in the park.

• Build up to a jog if there is a clear track.
• Pick up the pace when you get to a hill.
