Joeys Programme Resources

Joeys Games Night

Opening Parade

Chair Soccer

Rob the Nest

Knots

Needed: Activity room or grassy outdoor area, eight to 12 players
To form a knot, joeys stand in a circle, shoulder to shoulder extending their hands into the center. Each joey grabs the hand of two different players, taking care that one of the players is not standing adjacent to them. Then the group untangles" the knot, the object being for the group to find itself in one large circle again, or perhaps two or even interconnected circles. No player may let go of any other player's hand (unless to prevent injury!).

Suggestions???

Second Hand Shop

Equipment:
As many old clothes, shoes, etc. as possible.

Place as many clothes of all kinds that you can possibly find in the center of the room. On the word "GO" the joeys dash into the center and put on as many garments as possible. At the word "STOP" (a pre-set time limit) the joeys return to the starting line. Have each joey count each article of clothing as s/he "disrobes." The one who had the most clothes on is declared the winner.

Octopus Race

Divide the mob into teams of three or four joeys each. Team members line up back to back with elbows linked. On signal they race to a turning line and back.
