Game SHOE SCRAMBLE

Props required:    Bring a dozen or more pairs of shoes from your home.

Choose 6 or 8 children.   Put all the shoes that you brought in a pile in the front centre of the room.   Tell the children that are picked to remove their shoes and add their shoes to the pile.   Mix up the pile of shoes. Line the children up at the back of the room.   Have everyone say the memory verse, then say “1, 2, 3, go!”  All the children run to the pile and pull out their shoes.   Then they run back to the start line.  The last 1 or 2 people are eliminated from the game, but are awarded with a small prize or a ticket for participating.   The remaining children go back and throw their shoes on the pile again.  Someone scrambles the shoe pile, and the race is run again.   Children are eliminated each round until there are only 2 children left.   The winner is the last person left in the game.
