Penguin Obstable Course

What you will need:

  • Scarfs (1 for each team)
  • Spoons (1 for each team)
  • Cotton balls
  • Bucket or boot

Directions: Set up your obstacle course and show the kids where they will go. The first person in line must have a scarf tied around both their legs so they waddle like a penguin. That child then takes a spoon of snow (spoon with a cotton ball) through an obstacle course around the room and cannot not drop the snow (or they have to start over). They must make it to the other side and add their snow to a bucket or boot. Once they are done, they can skip, twirl, crab-crawl or dance while the next person gets their legs tied together and goes. This game can have teams or just everyone takes a turn.

This game is VERY fun. I was surprised how much the kids liked it. We had the kids crawl under their desks, go around chairs, over the desks, etc. It didn't take too much time to set up and everyone who participated liked it and cheered their classmates on.
