Next time when you go camping, try to play these fun games with people in your group or other campers. These activities can give you and your kids lots of laugh and a great way to build relationship with other campers.1. Circle Jumping
Stand everyone in a circle with all hands clasped. One of
crowds lies down in
center with a rope as long as one-half
diameter of
circle.
To
end of
rope is tied a small weight like a sand bag. He whirls
weight around with
full length of rope revolving with increasing rapidity.
As it approaches
players, they hop up and let it pass under their feet. The one whose foot is touched is out of
game and
person who keeps out of
way of
rope
longest is
winner.
2. Wolf
Here is a Japanese game full of fun and action.
Place a dozen or more campers in line, and have each fellow place his hands firmly on
shoulders of
person in front of him.
Choose one of
fellows for
"Wolf." The first person at
head of
line is called
"Head" of
Serpent, and
last fellow is
"Tail."
The "Wolf" stands near
head of
Serpent until a signal is given. Then he tries to catch
"Tail" without touching any other part of
snake.
The others who form
body of
Serpent protect
"Tail" by wreathing about in all sorts of twists to prevent
"Wolf" from catching
"Tail." This must be done without breaking
line.
When
"Tail" is caught,
"Wolf" becomes
"Head," and
"Tail" becomes
"Wolf." The last person in line is
"Tail."
The game can be continued until every camper has been
"Wolf."
