4 or more players Another fun kids game that's been played in generations of families around the world. This relay should be played on grass. Make starting and finish lines about 25 feet apart. Players pair up. The two teams that are starting the race line up behind the finish line. One player on each team gets on her hands and knees on the ground and the other player stands behind her. The leader shouts, "One, two, three, GO!" and the player standing up puts her hands on her partner's legs and lifts them off the ground holding the partner's ankles. The player on the ground walks with her hands with her partner holding onto her ankles towards the finish line. Once they reach the finish line, the players change positions and race back to cross the starting line. The first team to do this wins. Players may also switch positions once they reach the finish line and wheelbarrow back to the starting line. This game has been played with school kids in gyms.
