[QUOTE="slsh, post: 294539, member: 8"] DDD - How about a bird seed race? 4 bowls, 2 teams, 2 wooden spoons, some bags of birdseed. Place bird seed in two bowls at start line, put empty bowls at finish line. Goal is to see which team can transfer the most birdseed using the spoon. Original instructions called for beans but I thought birdseed was more environmentally friendly. Lifesaver pickup - this was actually a big hit with- Diva's class (5th graders). Straws and Lifesavers candy. Who can get the straw through the Lifesaver first and pick it up. Harder than it sounds. Teachers loved it because the kids were quiet (straw in mouth, LOL). Original instructions called for using toothpicks instead of straws but I could just see a bunch of impaled kids. ;) I love balloon races - either pass the balloon belly to belly, or have the teams run to to the end of the field and pop their balloon, run back for next person to go (clean up required on that race). Also did a paperclip chain - again, 2 teams and a set amt of time (I did 5 mins) - first person passes paper clip to second who attaches one then passes it to third person who attaches another, etc. Team with longest chain wins.
