Tremendous Ideas to Keep the Children Amused for Ages
Big Foot Relay. Have the children bring 2 shoeboxes with them. Magnetic Tape the hats onto the corners, then cut a one-inch-wide and four-inch long slit in every top. Have the contestants slip their feet into the slits in the boxes and race.
Batty Bowling. Acquire a bit of silly or different items that can be bumped over by a ball, much as a plastic milk carton, a candlestick, a stand-up doll, a plastic vase of blooms, a pizza pie box, a tower of bare cans, an umbrella stand, an empty oatmeal container, and a book. Line them up like bowling pins and grant the bowlers try to belt them over with volleyballs, tennis balls, or golf balls.
Cross Step. Draw a ten-by-ten grid on the sidewalk or patio with chalk. Have each player stand on a different square. One at a time, each player must move to a new square after crossing out the square she or he was formerly standing in. The magic is that players cannot step into a square that is engaged or crossed out. If a player cannot move to a new square, he or she is out. The game proceeds until one player is left.
Drag the Body. Separate the group into two teams. Give each team a blanket. Have one player from each team lie down on the blanket. The teams must pull the body on the blanket from one end of the yard to the other. Whoever crosses the finish line first, wins.
