Pots and Beanbags 🪣🎯🎾
🪣🎯 Story / Theme:
A fun accuracy challenge where kids try to land beanbags into a “pot” that keeps moving further away. 🚶♂️↩️👧
🧰 Equipment:
• 🪣 1 tub, bucket, or large pot per pair
• 🟠 Beanbags (or small foam balls)
• ⚽ Footballs (optional variation)
🎮 How to Play:
🧍♂️👧 Line children up on the baseline, with parents standing in front holding a tub.
🟠 Each child throws a beanbag aiming to land it in the tub.
✅ If they make it, the parent takes a big step back. 👣
🛑 If they miss, the parent takes a step forward. 🔁
🔄 After a few turns, swap roles — the child holds the pot and the parent throws. 👨👧👦
⏫ Progressions:
⚽ Ball Swap: Use footballs instead of beanbags — allow one bounce before catching.
🤾 Throwing Styles: Encourage side-arm or rugby-style throws for variety.
🏃 Moving Target: The catcher walks side-to-side while holding the tub. 🪣👣
