Description

A fast paced team game that can be played indoors or outdoors. Also sometimes called Cups and Saucers.

Resources

Sports cones / plastic bowls / cups - the more the better, but at least twice as many as the number of people playing.

Instructions

Setup:
-Split your players into 2 teams.
-Spread the cones/bowls around the floor, making sure you have a mix of some being the right way up, and others upside down.

Aims:
-Where the cone points upwards/bowl is upside down - it is a hill. One team is trying to turn all the cones into hills.
-Where the cone points downwards/bowl is the right way up - it is a valley. One team is trying to turn all the cones into valleys.


Rules:
-Participants have two minutes to turn over cones
-Cones cannot be moved from their original position
-You cannot flip over the same cone twice in a row
-You can only flip over one cone at a time

How to win:
-When you stop, count up how many hills and how many valleys you have to find the winning team.

Want to make it more complicated?
-Make certain colours worth more than others. So a blue cone is worth 5 normal cones
-Only let players turn cones over using tools, like chopsticks, tweezers, or little-pickers.
