A Series of Relays

Team leaders, relays, instructions, do you catch my drift ? Children love it. All you need is two bandanas and they’ll think that they’re on a beach in Cambodia !

— Let’s now have a series of relay races. Stand in a single line behind your team captain facing me. I stand on the opposite side of the room and give you orders. The team captains start – touch my hand, run back, touch the hand of their team-mates and go to the end of the line. Then the team-mates can start. The first team whose captain is once again first in the line wins. Don’t forget to cheer one another on !

— For the first relay race, I would like you to make a round trip hopping on one foot !

— For the second relay race, I would like you to make a round trip with a book on your head without touching it and without dropping it !

— For the third relay race, I would like you to make a round trip walking on all fours !

— For the fourth relay race, I would like you to make a round trip with a spoon in your mouth and a potato in the spoon (no touching the potato !) without dropping it !
