Team Challenges
Work together to win
Materials
- cardboard (two pieces at least 5' long and 6" wide)
Directions
Try these two cooperative games in which the players may end up giggling rather than squabbling!
- Elbow to Elbow: Have your children work with a partner (this could be you!). Call out one of three phrases: elbow-to-elbow, knee-to-knee, or heel-to-heel. Partners must touch these body parts together.
- Crossover: Place the cardboard pieces end-to-end on the floor. Have one person stand at each end. Both players must cross to the other end without stepping off the "bridge." (Provide ground rules so children know they have to work around each other.)
With a Group
Each of these activities is fun with a group, so invite some friends over! For "Elbow to Elbow," divide the group into pairs. For "Crossover," have the children line up on each side of the cardboard pieces and take turns crossing in pairs.
