Heroic Ideas to Keep the Youngsters Entertained for Months
Big Foot Relay. Have the children add 2 shoeboxes with them. Tape the hats onto the corners, then cut a one-inch-wide and four-inch long slit in each top. Have the contestants slip their feet into the slits in the boxes and race.
Frisbee Tower. Buy a bundle of mini Frisbees and station them in a pile in the center of the yard. Have the guests carve up the Frisbees among themselves. The first player begins the activity by putting one of his or her Frisbees on the earth. Each of the following players places his or her Frisbee on upper of the first Frisbee, and the action continues until someone causes the growing tower to topple.
Blind Walk. Produce an obstruction path from one end of the yard to the other. Line up the contestants and let them have a thorough look at the path. One at a time, blindfold the kids and have them walk the path without looking. Note each player’s time on the scoreboard.
Drag the Body. Divide the group into two teams. Give each team a blanket. Have one player from each team lie down on the blanket. The teams must haul the body on the blanket from one end of the yard to the other. Whoever crosses the finish line first, wins.
