Reindeer Relay

(K-2nd grade)

Reindeer Relay

(3rd-6th grade)

In this exciting relay, the students place cups on their hands to mimic reindeer hooves. Two teams face off, racing to collect ice from a central plate. Players must carefully place the ice in their hooves, ensuring they don't drop them. The ice must then be carefully placed on structures in front of the students. If an ice cube falls, it will return to the plate and the player's turn ends. The team that gathers and balances the most ice cubes is the winner.
