(See egg and spoon race below for egg bean bags)
To make the chicken's nest, glue
an enlarged clip art picture of a chicken onto board.
Prop it up in a basket with no handle
and Bobs your Uncle!
or
rubber eggs thrown into a bucket
Egg and spoon race
We have this set from the Early Learning Centre
but the eggs would be so easy to make yourself.
Here's a NO SEW version
To make bean bag eggs very easily with some white and yellow felt, dried beans and a glue gun.
Cut the white felt into egg shapes (one pair),
hot glue the two pieces together (leaving a hole at the top),
glue on the round yellow yolk pieces
fill with beans
glue gun to seal the eggs
and that's all there is too it!
Egg Relay Race
hold the rubber egg under your chin
run across the garden and back
and pass to the next person in your team with NO HANDS
ok enough with egg games!!!

A Welly Wanging Competion

Set a wanging line
Stand behind the line and launch your welly
an umpire then needs to replace the landed welly with the player’s marker
Each player gets three wangs and the longest is taken as the winner’s distance
The winner is the one who throws their welly the furthest.
I am not sure if this is done elsewhere in the world but it's just a throwing game.
google "welly wanging" and take a look a the images
Tractor (tyre) tipping
If your lucky enough for someone to lend a couple of tyres
or
you could use the inflatable pool tyres
or

See who can get to the other side of the garden first by flipping the tyre over and over
or
you could just roll them

Ring The Bull
