Today at Sr. OSC we played an awesome game outside, that I haven't played in years. It was such a great time that I thought I'd share our experience with you. We called the game "Animal Chain Game" or "Predator vs. Prey" and it goes like this:
Participants were placed into 1 of 4 different animal groups including:
Predator
Carnivore
Omnivore
Herbivore
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Each group had a different role to play. Whether it was finding food sources, finding water sources, tagging/eating other players or a combination of all the tasks.
The food/water sources were made of tin cans, string & coloured markers. Some were more challenging to find then others.
Once the children found a food or water source, they would use the markers to keep track of the items they've found.
It was a complex game, but it was really great to see our whole program participate in an activity they didn't know anything about and have it turn out so well!
That's all for now folks,
Matt
