Resource Info
The Goal Digger helps your children reach a BIG goal. Perhaps it's to learn to ride a bike or tie their shoelaces, this goal setting activity will inspire confidence and determination.
But oh no! - Their big goal is under all that rubble, it‘s impossible to reach! So how can we reach it? We want your children to think of three small steps to dig towards their goal.
Just like a digger has to make lots of small digs to clear the mound, reaching a big goal can seem a lot more achievable when we take smaller steps to reach it.
Directions: Ask your children to think of what their BIG goal is. Is it learning to swim, moving up a reading band or two or even learning to play an instrument? A big goal can seem daunting at first, but we want children to feel like they can achieve anything! Once they've written their goal in the mound, help them to come up with three small steps they can take to achieve their goal.
