INNIES & OUTIES

• Teacher places six hoops in spaces in the play
area.
• There are two teams of children - Innies & Outies
• Each hoop is a different colour (same as the 6
bricks).
• In each hoop is a certain number of bricks of that
colour; outside of each hoop is the same number
of bricks randomly placed.
• When Teacher signals the game to start, the Innies
move any of the bricks lying outside the hoops to
the inside; the Outies move any of the bricks in the
hoops to the outside of the hoops.
• Children may only move one brick at a time.
• After a certain length of time, Teacher signals the
game to stop - children will count to see which
team had the most bricks - Innies or Outies.
• That team wins the round. Play three rounds to
determine a winner.

BALLOON

BASH

• Children work in twos / fours.
• They use their bricks to build a barrier / net
between the tables.
• Each pair or team has a balloon between them.
• They must keep the balloon in the air and tap it
from one to the other across the fence.

Q: How many times can you hit the balloon
across to each other?

Variations:
• Teams could play against each other and keep
scores.
• Children could build a tower for the middle and
the balloon must pass over the tower.
