DIY Relay Race Wands

Create a relay race in a classroom hallway, living room, or outdoors in your backyard. I find active games are a great way to get the kids moving when you need to burn some energy at the party.

Have the kids compete to be the first team across the finish line.

First, create a Relay Wand with a Valentine’s Day theme. Use a paper towel roll that you can cover with red paper and hearts. Then pick teams with 3-4 kids.

Then make your race track if you only have a small space have the kids go from their team around a chair and back to their team members. The kids could also hop one way to add a challenge. If you have more space add more obstacles to run around.

The first team member runs the track then hands the relay wand to the next team member they continue until the last team member races back with the relay wand.

If you have a larger track you can have the team members space out around the track. When their teammates reach them they get the wand and run to the next team member until the final team member crosses the finish line.

When they return they give the ice cube to the next player to go. You keep going until all the team members have finished. The first team to get everyone back wins the game.
