Instructions

Decide on what activities you will do, choose the number and type to suit your group, and how you will run your programme, this could be:

- Groups rotating around the activities (like a round robin)
- Groups choose which activity they will do using the clothesline system - this is where you have all the activiy cards up on a board or pegged on a piece of string, groups choose a card, go and do activity and then return the card to the clothesline and choose next activity from the selection that is there. If an activity could have two groups at a time, you put up two cards for that activity
- Everyone does the same activity at the same time

You could begin your programme with 10-15 minutes of fun group games that involve green, here are some ideas:
- Balloon game with green balloons e.g. over and under relay, passing using only your knees relay, passing only using your elbows, etc
- Make green slime using cornflour
- Green clothes relay - dress in all green clothes and/or accessories before running the course
- Litter Sweep Relay Game - give each team a broom and a small pile of dry rubbish such as cans, paper, small plastic bottles, etc. Each person sweeps the rubbish to certain point and back. If a player loses any rubbish they must sweep back and collect it up.


Attached are files with activity suggestions. If you have an activity that would fit in a 'green themed event' please add to the collection. Remember this also includes activities about being eco-friendly to our environment, remember to include some 'just for fun' activities like the 'Dirt Pudding Cups'. There are numerous ideas out there, search with key words/phrases like 'green theme for kids'

Making paper as part of this meeting is an option, Activity 8 Planet Watch

This is great time to hold your clothes swap evening, Activity 4 Planet Watch
