Shark infested custard

Report Copyright Infringement View in OSM UK

Description

Work as a team and problem solve to get everyone across the shark infested custard. Outside on playground if weather good enough.


Resources

Cushions or mats (three per team)

Instructions

Everyone should get into groups of four or five people.
The person leading the game should give each group three cushions or small mats.
In their small groups, they need to get everyone across the hall without touching the floor. Anyone who touches the floor is caught in the shark infested custard and has to go back to the start.
Adults and helpers may need to help everyone to use the mats/cushions and to work out how to get across the space.
Once everyone in the small group is across they should sit down.

Reflection
This game encouraged everyone to be a team player and problem solve to get the whole team across the finish line.

After playing shark infested custard everyone should be encouraged to think about:

Was it difficult to get across the 'shark infested custard'?
Was it easier to get across with team members than on your own?
