GAME TYPE - Individual game.
WHO'S IT FOR - Groups Two and Three. You need two people for a game, and more for a tournament.
WHAT YOU NEED - A table and a paper football for each game. Find instructions on how to make a paper football here.
HOW TO PLAY:
- You can set up the tournament in a couple of different ways. You can do a single elimination tournament, bracket style like the NCAA tournament. You could also have all players play everyone else and keep track of wins and losses, with the top two players meeting for the championship at the end. You can also come up with your own format.
- To play paper football, seat two players across from each other at a table. There shouldn't be too much space between them.
- Have players flick the football to the other end of the table. The goal is to get part of the football hanging over the edge of the table. You can check this by running your finger across the edge of the table. If the football moves, it's a goal.
- If the football goes over the edge and falls to the floor, it doesn't count.
- If the football does not score a goal, the opposing player must flick it from the place it stopped. The only way a player may move the football is if the football goes over the edge.
- Whoever scores five points first is the winner.
Play as many games as you want, but try to keep it competitive and fun.
THIS WORKS ON - Fine motor (flicking the football), eye-hand coordination (aiming, trying to get the shot just right), competition (trying to score more goals than the other player)
