Cooperative Games!

Here are a few games to try at home! Your children have played them in Lunch Bunch...Ask them to teach you how to play!

Balloon Keep Up- Children work together to keep one or more balloons up in the air so they do not fall to the floor. Try playing this game in large space or outside.

Cooperative musical chairs- The goal of this game is to find ways to share (not compete for) the chairs,when the music ends.

Islands- Create a group of "islands," made up of hoops, rings, or carpet squares. Children move around and between the islands while music plays. When the music stops, everyone must find an island. Encourage children to share the islands. For variety ask children to visit a different island each time, or have everyone wearing a certain color go to the same island.

HAVE FUN!
