Spider Web Game

The kids loved this game when we played it at our family reunion. Even the older ones, who I thought would think it was boring, loved it.

Buy a small prize for each child participating (I chose a small box of nerds, you can buy them in a bigger bag at WalMart), and wrap it up. Attach a very long (6ft) piece of string, wool or yarn to it. Once you have all the strings and prizes, take them outside to your playset and start wrapping them around. Make sure they are going in different directions, but have them start from a central location. When you are finished wrapping the strings it looks like a giant spider web.

Before the kids start, give them all their starting string and let the game begin.

After all their hard work, they can open the prize.
