Pull A Rabbit Out Of A
Bag Sam Houston Area Council
Each player is given a bag and each bag contains an
equal number of objects. Objects used might be such things as a
ball, a spool, a stick of gum and other not easily defined objects.
As the leader calls out some object, each player must thrust his
hand into his bag and bring out the object before the leader has
counted to ten. If he succeeds in bringing out the correct object he
places it to one side. If he does not succeed, that object remains
in the bag. The point is to see who can bring out the most correct
objects during the naming of the various items each bag
contains.
A game idea from Earl in Canada
I saw a great game idea come out of a Winterfest our
District put on. (does not have to be a winter game) You need 4
large truck inner tubes. Duct tape two tubes together on top of each
other (like stacked donuts). Boys get inside the inner tubes and put
their hands between the two inner tubes that are taped together or
you could fashion a harness. The idea is then to bump into each
other and knock one player down. Looked like lots of fun. G. Earl

Blow Ball Daniel Webster
Council
Materials: Table, ping pong ball
Have boys kneel down around table with their hands
behind them. Place the ping pong ball in the center of the table. On
signal, the boys try to blow the ball off the table. When the ball
is blown off the table, the two boys closet to the ball leave.
Repeat until only one boy is left. Other ways of playing is to give
a point to the boys between whom the ball went by. The winner will
be the boy with the least number of points at the end of the
game. Hint: To add variety to the game add a second ball . . . .
