Three Legged Race



Three Legged Race is one of the fun kids outdoor party games. It takes teamwork and coordination to win this relay race!

4 or more players
Ages 6 and up
Need: sticks for making lines, scarf

This is another classic played for generations and generations! Get ready for some laughs as you turn 4 legs into 3 and race other teams!

This game should be played on the grass.

Begin by making starting and finish lines on the grass about 40 feet apart. Sticks work fine.

Players pair up with a partner, standing side by side, arms around each other's shoulders.

A scarf is tied loosely around one of each player's legs that are touching.

The teams stand behind the starting line and after hearing, "Ready, set, GO!" they begin making their way to the finish line.

Falling is to be expected and expect lots of laughs along the way.

At the finish line, the teams turn around and race back to cross the starting line. The first team back is the winner.

Teenagers may want a more challenging game. If so, use 3 people on a team.

It takes even more teamwork, effort and coordination when 3 people are trying to race to a finish line!

You can adjust the distance between the starting line and finish line according to the ages and abilities of the players.

For a variation, you can have the kids walk backwards to the finish line!
