Giant Animals

October 26, 2012 by

This game is good for young kids. No materials are required. Children play together to turn their bodies into different parts of a giant animal. To begin, the children can suggest a specific animal or “giant” and propose its body parts. Each child selects a different body part to be. Children team up to make a total giant animal. Once they have their animal assembled, they can try to get it moving—rolling over, jumping, stretching, wagging its tail, etc. If you have a big class with lots of animals, you can make a GIANT animal zoo.
(This game is adapted from Terry Orlick, “Cooperative Games and Sports”)
