You can mark off throwing levels for various ages. Hang hula hoops from the ceiling/tree by ropes and have players throw small footballs or flying discs through the hula hoops. Any kid that gets caught in the parachute can join in again. Volunteers holding the sheet bring it down when another volunteer stops the music. Kids take turns running underneath the parachute, so they swap places with just one kid at a time under the sheet. As it billows up, kids get under the sheet while the music is playing.

Tell them to raise the sheet up into the air so it fills up like a parachute. Have the volunteers grab onto the edges of the sheet. Next, lower the broom onto the chair rungs and ask the kids to crawl under it. Lower the broom onto the chair seats and have the kids repeat. Start the music and ask the kids to follow each other as they go under the broom and then back to the single chair. Have the kids line up by the single chair. Place the third chair at the other end of the room. Lay the broom across the top of the chair backs. Put the two chairs with rungs at one end of the room with the chair backs facing each other.

Have each player assigned to a game piece and numbered column. Consider that they’ll be touched by many players if used for a carnival game. Fun items could be small beanie babies or any other popular item. Find 6 movable play pieces that can fit in each square as they move across the board. Each column should have 5-8 squares depending on how long you want the game to last. Use removable tape or to mark off six columns on the board with a start and finish line. Prepare a play area on a board, desktop or table. Required: Board, tape, dice, movable items One try to pull out an object that is marked. Fill a small wading pool or washtub and place them in.
