Caterpillar Races

Preparation:

Use spray paint (outside) or masking tape (inside) to mark a start line and a finish line on the ground 30' to 60' apart.


At the Party:

1. Divide your guests into two teams.


2. Line the children up in two columns, one child behind the other, at the start line.


3. Have each child put his or her hands on the waist of the child in front of them, forming a "caterpillar."


4. When you say, "Wiggle!" each team must run, staying connected, to the finish line.


5. If a team becomes disconnected, they must stop and reconnect before continuing.


6. The first team to the finish line wins.
