Cheer Contest

Preparation:

1. Locate several rooms in your house or party location that would allow sufficient room to practice a cheerleading routine.


2. On the front of the doors to those rooms, tape a sign that says “Practice Gym #1 (or 2, etc.)”


3. Write out several “cheers” on pieces of paper, such as “We can do it, yes we can! If we can’t do it no one can!” or “1-2-3-4, we are winning, look at the score!”

1. Give each child (or pair of children) a slip of paper with their cheer on it.


2. Send them to their designated “Practice Gym” and give them 10 minutes to come up with moves that go with their cheer.


3. After 10 minutes is up, call them all out to the party area and have each child or team perform their cheer.


4. Either have everyone vote on the best cheer and give that child or team a prize, or make everyone winners by passing out candy as prizes after all routines are complete.
