added 5-2-06 Original
Author Unknown
Need: two
sets of clothing consisting of: Uncle Sam's hat, a white beard, a blue
jacket or shirt (one that's sized to fit the largest guest) a red clip-on
bow tie, and a bell.
Directions:
Separate the players into two equal lines spaced approximately 6 feet
apart. (If there you do not have an unequal number of players, the first
player in the shortest line can take a second turn) Place a set of
clothing at the beginning of each line; then place a bell approximately 15
feet in front of each line. When you say go, the first player in
line must completely get dressed up in the clothing; then march (not run)
to the bell. When they reach the bell, they are to pick it up with their
left hand, turn and face their teammates, ring the bell. Then they
must replace the bell, march back to the front of their line, remove the
clothing, and go to the end of their line. The next player repeats the
process; repeat until the last player finishes. The first team to finish
is the winner.
Note:
You can also use
shaving cream for the players to make their own beards. Just
be sure to have a hose or bucket of water to clean up in after. You can
also move the bell closer and have helpers for younger team players.
