Three-Legged Race

Rating: 8+

Players form teams of two. Standing next to each other and facing the same direction, players tie their inside legs together. Each team lines up at a designated starting line, and a nonplayer calls “Ready, set, go!” Each team tries to make it to the designated finish line before the other teams do. The first team across wins.

While it is a good strategy to find players of approximately the same size, it can be a lot more fun for you and for the audience to pair up with someone smaller or bigger than you are.
