This past turno Carrie and I decided to take the girls on a walk into Parramos – they had been spending WAY too much time watching movies and being lazy listening to music, so we decided it was time for some exercise! We brought along a soccer ball and some cards to ensure a lack of boredom, yet there were still some girls who just didn’t want to move from their seats in the park…until Carrie got a genius idea.
“Do you remember the rules to SPUD?” DID I EVER. So, with Carrie’s suggestion, we got the girls off their tails and played a rousing game of Spud in the park, calling out categories and pegging each other with the soccer ball – another successful day as a tia :).

If you have _two_ soccer balls you can play an easy team game.
Divide into teams. One team throws one soccer ball as far away as they can in the playing area.
The other team then kicks the remaining ball ...trying to hit the first ball.
The teams alternate kicking the second ball at the target (first) ball.
Which ever team hits the target ball first scores a point. The team that scored throws either ball out as the next target ball. Play to whatever total points.
Works with just about any open, safe area (beach, grassy, lighty 'tree-ed') and with any skill level mix of players ...just divide them up evenly by skill.
Just a game idea.
