Good times with lots of pals

This is a fun activity with three long church tables, painter's tape, straws, and little fuzzy pom-poms (used for crafts). Use the tape to mark a starting line, dividing line (to make 2 lanes), and a finish line.

Here is the cubmaster doing a test-run:



The boys are not allowed to touch their fuzzball unless it touches the middle line or falls off the table (in which case they have to pick it up and run back to the starting line). They can only make the ball move by blowing on it through their straw.

This video is the end of the first race they did. Both boys had run back to the start several times, so it was surprising that the finish ended up being so close:



I am very thankful that my kids are able to play well with so many different friends. Whether they just met them that day, have known them for a little while, or have been best friends for years, they are always good sports:
