PARK RANGER - PARK RANGER 
Materials Needed: 80 or more feet of string
How to Play:
Mark off a playing field roughly 20 feet
square with string. One person serves as the Park
Ranger and stands in the middle of the field. Everyone else lines up on one side of the square.
facing the Park Ranger.
When the Park Ranger calls out, "Park Ranger - Park Ranger," everybody starts running
and tries to get to the other side without getting touched by the Park Ranger. If caught, they
become Park Rangers and join the Park Ranger in the middle.
Now everyone is on the opposite side of the square. The Park Rangers simultaneously
call out "Park Ranger - Park Ranger" and the players run toward the opposite side, trying to
evade the Park Rangers. The last person remaining untouched becomes the new Park Ranger.
BUDDY BALLOONS 
Materials Needed: Balloons
How to Play:
Divide the group into two teams and the teams into pairs. A balloon is given
to each pair of players. The object of the game is to hold the balloon between the player's
shoulders and without using their hands they move along a pre-selected obstacle course. This
course should include items that cause players to go over, under, in, out, and around. The
difficulty of the course is selected according to the size and coordination of the players. Once
one set has crossed the goal line, the next set goes. Play continues until all of the players of a
team have crossed the goal line.
If the balloon is dropped or touched by the players' hands, the players must return to the
starting line and try again.
BUILDING A MONUMENT 
Materials Needed: Towels to clean up the water or play outside,
paper plates, small paper cups, and water.
How to Play:
Divide the players into teams with three players on
each team. One is the Foundation. The other two are the Builders. The Foundation lies on the
ground face up. The Builders put about an inch of water in the first cup and gently place the cup
on the forehead of the Foundation. The Foundation may hold onto the cup with his hands. On top
of that, the Builders place a paper plate and then another cup with water and so on and so on. The
team with the highest cup tower full of water is the winner.
