Activity– Blind Mans Bluff

Simple game. All you need is a a cloth for a blindfold and some friends. Choose someone to be blindfolded. Some times the blindfolded person is turned around a couple of times, but this can be eliminated at your choice. Then someone taps the blind man on the shoulder. The blind man must guess who the tapper is. If he guesses correctly. the blind man and the tapper switch places. If not, others take turns tapping.

Activities: Dragon Breath

Dragon

This game can be played with teams or with each child having its own string. You will need a ten foot (or longer) string for each team or child and a cone shaped cup. Pull the string through the bottom of the cup. Tie the strings to furniture,doorknobs, or nails so they are stretched tight. Try to get them shoulder height or a little lower.  Line up children (either by teams or individually) behind each string. Cups should be at the end of the string closest to children with open end of cups facing children.  At a signal, children begin blowing into the cup to move it along the string until the cup reaches the other end of the string. If playing as teams, the player must push the cup back to the beginning by hand for the next player. If playing as individuals, the first one finished is the dragon.

Aliens

October 21, 2019 by Jason Earrame

You will notice that I didn’t include any pictures with my topic this time.  I did this because no one knows what an alien looks like, so it is all up to your imagination. There is room for lots of creativity. Another thing that I have done differently this time is I have not included a story starter paragraph. Instead I have included a sheet that can be downloaded to aid in describing YOUR alien. With this information kids can work together on a story.
