Going Goofy!

Teams must pick a dog bone and race back to their team performing the command and staying in their “lane”. Watch for the “Fast-Pass” which allows you to sprint by your opponent without waiting!

Supplies:

  • 2 bowls
  • White construction paper
  • Marker

Directions:

  1. Create bone shapes out of white construction paper.
  2. Write a variety of funny commands on each bone. (i.e. Spell your name backwards, Hop on one foot while patting your head, Name at least 5 Disney characters walking backwards, etc.)
  3. You can write the same commands for each team to keep things equal or mix it up to keep it interesting. Be sure to include 2-3 “Fast Passes” per team.
  4. Surprise kids by including a few commands such as, “Cheer for your opponent!” or “Say something nice about a teammate!”
  5. Fold the bones and put an equal number of commands in each bowl
  6. Divide kids into 2 teams and line up single file.
  7. Place 2 “dog bowls” a good distance away from the start of each the line.
  8. At the start signal, the first player in each line races to his or her assigned bowl and chooses a bone. Then he or she proceeds to perform the command.
  9. If a player gets a fast pass – he yells “Fast Pass” which frees the next member of his team to start and the fast pass winner gets to sprint back to the line!
  10. The first team to finish and complete all commands correctly wins!
