Lame Hen Game

Here's a relay race from China that's great for parties or other group gatherings.

What You Need
  • 20 sticks (2 feet in length)
Instructions
  1. Line up 10 sticks, each about 18 inches apart, like the rungs on a ladder. A few feet away, do the same thing with the other 10 sticks, making sure that each line begins and ends in the same place.

  2. Teams line up about 15 feet behind the first stick. At the "Go" signal, the first player on each team hops on one foot over each stick, all the while squawking like a lame hen (if this is too hard for the littlest hens, let them bunny hop on two feet).

  3. At the end of the row, the hen picks up the last stick, hops with it back to the starting line, and places it so that it is first in line. That's the signal for the next player to start hopping over the course. The first team to complete the circuit wins.

Variations:
If you have only a few kids, try playing a beat-the-clock version.
