Get set up

Gather the required materials: Spoons and lightweight eyeball-style balls. Set them out before explaining the first round.

LET’S PLAY

Here’s how it works.

  1. Mark a start and turnaround point.
  2. Give each team a spoon and lightweight ball.
  3. First player walks to the marker and back while balancing it.
  4. If it falls, reset at the nearest marker.
  5. Tag the next teammate.

A few ground rules

Keep the agreed turn order, boundaries and timing consistent for everyone. Players may pass or use an accessibility adaptation without penalty.

Mix it up

Use individual timed runs or a zigzag route.

Make it a great round

Use lightweight balls and walking only on indoor surfaces.

Keep everyone comfortable

Use clean, stable, age-appropriate materials and remove anything sharp, breakable or unsuitable for the youngest player.
