Game Description:
A fun game that involves our favourite team member, chuck the chicken!
Objective:
This is a relay style game where children go from one point to another practising different fundamental movement skills.
Game Rules:
Split all the children up into even teams, and give each team a starting and stopping point for them to move to and from. Then give each team a chicken. One person from each time, will move a certain way with the chicken, to a marked point, and then move back to their team mate and pass the chicken off, until all members of the team have gone and are sitting down. Have the teams running different ways with the chicken like on their head, while riding on the chicken, backwards. Be creative, and silly with Chuck!
Progression (optional):
Have the children move different ways with the chicken, easier and harder depending on the skill level of your group.
