A Friendly Hand- This game requires some prep

A Friendly Hand 

Items needed: 

• 2 large scarves
• 2 laundry baskets
• masking tape
• and small balls (1 for every 2 children)

2 "start" lines made with tape.  Place an equal number of balls and one scarf at each "start" line.  Place the baskets several feet in front of the lines.  

• Form two equal teams behind the starting lines. Guide each child to find a partner on his team. 
• Explain that one child will hold onto one edge of the scarf while the partner holds the other edge. A leader will place a ball on top of the scarf.  
• Guide partners to carry the scarf (with the ball) to the basket and then roll the ball into the basket.  
• Instruct partners to bring the scarf back to the next pair of kids in their line. Continue until everyone has had a few turns to play.  
• Remind kids that God gives us friends who help us. 
• Challenge kids to go faster each time you play.
