New Beginnings-The Games

Our New Beginnings Theme was the Olympics.  We wanted to do something fun and different for the girls.  They always have fancy dinners that they have to dress up for, so we wanted casual.

Here are the games we played...


Pairs Ice Skating Cross: The girls get into pairs and have to "skate" across the gym floor in their socks.  They all go at once and it's a race, so hence, "Cross."  At the end of the race they had to put a scrambled version of the Young Women Theme in order on a chalkboard.

Bobsled: Two girls pulled a third girl across the gym floor on a towel.  We set up cones for a "track."

Curling: We used stool cushions as "the rock" and tossed it toward a posterboard goal.  The girls used brooms to get the rock all they way to the target.

And, that's a wrap for New Beginnings.  Maybe I'll time for some house projects now =)
