My boys and I love being outdoors when the weather is warm here in Houston. If you are following my Instagram stories, you’ll see that we recently moved to a new home with a nice front yard to play in. One of the outdoor activities we love to do together is play “Chalk Shape Hop”. This is great activity for kids to learn about different shapes. I’m partnering today with Dial®, America’s beloved soap brand of 70 years. Dial® has recently released a new line-up, Dial Complete® 2 in 1 Moisturizing & Antibacterial Beauty Bar and Dial Complete® 2 in 1 Moisturizing & Antibacterial Foaming Hand Wash. I’m partnering with Dial® to share a fun, messy, yet educational chalk activity that you can try with your kids this summer! This chalk shape hop is a hit with my boys and I hope it will be a hit with your kids, too!
STEP 1 You can use different colors of chalk to make this activity fun. Start by outlining all the shapes you’d like for your kids to learn. I drew a circle, star, square, triangle, rectangle, oval, and crescent. I drew all the shapes close together so my boys could easily hop from one to another.
STEP 2 Here’s the fun and messy part that my boys love. I let them help me color the inside of each shape.
LET THE FUN BEGIN! I ask them to stand on a specific shape. Then I call out a shape and they hop from shape to shape as fast as they can until they get to the correct one! It’s a simple game, but my kids love it! If you have bilingual kids like I do, this is also a great way for them to learn shape and color words in both English and another language.
My boys love to have snack time after playing. I trust Dial Complete® 2 in 1 Moisturizing & Antibacterial Foaming Hand Wash to clean off all the bacteria they came into contact with playing outside. It gives me peace of mind to know my kid’s hands are clean after such messy activities. We’ve actually used Dial® foaming hand wash for many years, as my husband likes how easy it is for the kids to lather up and rinse off. I love that it’s formulated to keep hands moisturized and clean with its antibacterial formula, even after repeated hand washing. It comes in three variants: Manuka Honey, Pearl Essence, and Rose Oil. I personally like Pearl Essence. The scent is calming and feels extra good on the skin!
I purchased mine from Target, but Dial® is available in all retailers near you. There’s several ongoing coupons that you can use while supplies last:

Bacteria can’t be avoided, but we can arm ourselves with proper products to rinse them away. When it comes to our family, our kids’health is our number one priority. With NEW Dial® 2 in 1, messy activities are worry-free!
What’s your kid’s favorite outdoor activity this summer?
What a fun and simple idea!! I’m adding this to our list of fun things to play outside this summer!
Also, I love this soap! It smells so nice and I appreciate able to clean my hands often without drying out my skin!
What a fun summer activity! I remember chalk in the summers being so fun when I was a kid.
That is such a fun idea. I love Dial and can’t say enough good things about their products.
What a great way to practice shapes! I’ll have to remember this the next time we have the chalk out.
We love chalking and what a great way to use it! My daughter gets so dirty too in the summer!
Sounds like a really fun activity to play any time! I’m going to try it with my kids and see what they think. Thanks!
This looks like such a fun activity! I also didn’t know you were in Houston! Hey neighbor (although we’re in such a big city!)
I can’t wait until our daughter is interested in chalk. She’s only 12 months and teething badly so right, she’d just try eating it haha but I remember growing up with chalk as a kid and always loved it!
