Outdoor Games
Waterbomb Challenge: In their patrols, the Explorers will line up in single file. A short distance away will be a bucket filled with water bombs and another bucket another short distance away. The first Explorer of each patrol will run to the first bucket, take a water bomb with their mouth and then drop it carefully in the second bucket. Once they are back to their patrol, the next Explorer will go.....this continues until all the patrol as been. The winning patrol can be chosen by the patrol with the most intact water bombs in the second bucket, or the first patrol back.
**Equipment - 2 buckets per patrol and minimum 10 water bombs per patrol**
Kick Rounders/Baseball: Same as standard Rounders/Baseball, but played with a football. Instead of having a 'batter', there is a 'Kicker' who kicks the ball instead of batting. Plenty of Space needed. Can be made more fun with one of those cheap 'floaty' balls you buy on holiday.
**Equipment - Large Ball **
Bucket Balance: The Explorers will be put in groups of 4/5. They will lay on their backs with their feet all up in the centre. A bucket of water will be balanced on their feet and they all need to remove their shoes without spilling the water.
**Equipmet needed - Bucket of water per group of 4/5**
Build a 'SnowExplorer': Each Patrol will select a 'SnowExplorer'. Each patrol will be given props (scarf, gloves, broom, glasses etc) and a can of shaving foam. The idea is to create the best looking SnowExplorer within a given time.
**Equipment needed - Can of Shaving foam per Patrol, props**
