PlayGames for small spaces
Bears in the Woods
Move to the beat, act like a bear and collect all the honey you can. Most of all, express yourself!
Magic Beans
Magic beans are very precious, keep them close as you climb the beanstalk. It'll be a challenge, but it is possible keep control of your beans on your own.
Maze Runners
Collect as many gems as you can and create the toughest mazes possible using your body. This one is all about knowing how you move through tight spaces.
As Quiet as a Mouse
A mouse is nothing without its tail, don't loose it whatever you do. You'll need to be as coordinated as you can be so you don't become a cat.
Rabbit Holes
Your body can do lots more than just see. Use all your senses to stay above ground and not fall into a rabbit hole.
PlayGames for big spaces
Tidy My Room
This will be the most fun you'll ever have tidying your room. Kick, bat, throw, chuck, hit, toss. Do whatever you need to do, just keep the room tidy!
Dinosaur Eggs
Dinosaur eggs are the rarest type of egg. You'll need to be brave to collect them, but also be smart. Make the right choices at the right time.
Tick Tock
How quickly can you get around the clock and back again? Find out with Tick Tock. Remember, the more time you're active the healthier you'll be.
Rugby-Tennis
Is it rugby? Is it tennis? No, its Rugby-Tennis. Making the right decision is just as important as how far you can kick in Rugby-Tennis.
The Rubix Cube
It doesn't have to be colours that need collecting in the same place. Balancing and being agile is the name of the PlayGame here.
PlayGames for limited equipment
Animal Mirror
Get creative, reflect each other, stretch and channel your inner elephant. This is great for relaxing and living a healthy lifestyle.
Press the Button
Whatever you do, don't let them press the button. React and readjust to block everything and protect the button at all costs.
Alphabet Boxes
Collect as many letters as you can to make the biggest word you can. Remember, two minds are always better than one, especially in Alphabet Boxes.
Bounce
Bounce! Bounce! Bounce! Changing the surface, changes the bounce. Can you get the ball to bounce twice before anyone else?
Invade
Make sure to attack and to defend. But when to do which one is the question?
PlayGames for indoor spaces
Escape the zoo
Escape from the zoo and get back to the wild, without getting caught by the zoo keepers. The more ways you can move the better.
Moving Feelings
Listen as hard as possible and move as quick as you can. Playing Moving Feelings is all about being able to express yourself and understand how others are feeling.
The Spider's Web
Rule number one: don't touch the spider's web. You don't want you or the ball to get stuck, so move through the web carefully and be aware.
The Donkey Pen
Get from one pen to the other without walking into any trees. What ways to communicate will you come up with when you can't see each other?
Crazy Golf
This is a bit like the crazy golf you might have played at the seaside, except there is no putter and you make the course. The angles and surfaces make the challenge.
