Joey scouts stand behind a line and try to get their bean bag into the icecream bucket , the bean bag should be pushed from the shoulder rather than thrown
Joey scouts in 3 or 4 teams. Each team is given a different shape ie; square.circle triangle etc , which they attach to a tree , play equipment etc as a home base . The teams are told they have 'x' number of the shapes to locate . On a signal each team searches a given area for their shape but not as individuals the exercise must be carried out as a unit .Once they have found a piece the whole team must bring it back to where the teams symbol is and then seek out another until all of the hidden shapes are accounted for A time limit could be set
Joey's stand behind a line , the discus throw is made with paper plate on the flat of the hand , not held between fingers and thumb
Set a course around the park and play equipment , Joeys in teams race the course to the end , must finish with their team mate . An interesting alternative is to have one joey scout blindfolded and their partner must aid them around the course , or have Joeys link arms so they are back to back one facing forward one facing backward as they find each arrow they change positions so that the Joey facing forward becomes the joey facing backward .
Teams of 4 , consisting of a blower upper , two carriers and a Balloon burster . On a signal , the Blower upper runs to the end of the course picks up , blows and ties a balloon then runs back to the team passes the balloon to the 1st carrier . The carrier transports the balloon without using hands or arms around a marker returns to the team and passes the balloon to the 2nd carrier The 2nd carrier repeats the 1st carriers course again using no hands , passing the balloon to the Balloon Burster , who runs the course holding the balloon and returns to team where they must pop the balloon without using hands or feet . The team is finished when they burst their balloon .
Teams of 4 - 6 . The teams will be signalled to GO Each team member in turn will skip 20 metres go round a marker and back to the start/finish point . This continues until all members have skipped the course and returned to the team line . The team indicates they have finished by sitting down
When batter hits the ball , they must run from one point to another , avoiding the ball being caught on the full or reaching home before the batter . Rotate bowlers frequently , Joey's do not win the chance to bat by getting the other batter out , rather they have a number and take turns at the bat .
Number of Joeys in teams depends on size of stick , the team board their boats straddling the stick one Joey facing the other team members . The rowers set off on a course steered by their coxswain (the only one facing the course ), have to navigate their boats around obstacles to a finishing place .
1 Joey is IT , the first person tagged joins hands with IT and so on forming a longer and longer chain until the last Joey is caught .
When tagged by IT , Joey must hold the part of the body which IT touched , while he/she becomes the new IT and tries to touch someone else .
Joeys form 2 teams , squat down side by side in 2 lines facing each other , with a gap between the lines which is wide enough to run down . It then has to run stooped over through this gap and tag one of the squatters , who also has to run stooped over down the gap and back to their place before being tagged by IT . If tagged , the 2 players join hands and repeat until everyone is in the chain
1 Joey Scout goes to hide ( could be one leader ) , all other Joeys count to one hundred , then set off individually to seek the hidden person , when the hiding spot is discovered , the finding Joey joins the hider and so on until all Joeys are packed into the hiding place . The Joey who was first to find the hider becomes IT next time .
Set up a row of hats (containers) , Joey scouts stand about 2 metres away from targets and attempt to throw or roll a ball into the hats , the owner of the hat runs forward takes the ball and throws it at a target , if the target is hit a stone is placed in the hat of the pitcher , if the target is missed a stone is placed in the hat of the thrower . If 'x' number of stones are collected in one hat , the owner of the hat must run forward scoop up their hat and run to tag a predetermined base , all other Joeys try to catch them before they tag the base .
Lay out sticks like the rungs on a ladder , they do not need to be spaced evenly . Have all your Joey Scouts line up with a space of a few metres between the beginning of the line and the first stick . Taking it in turns (one Joey can start as the previous Joey is near the finish) each Scout needs to bound between the sticks without touching them , as the last Joey Bounds through , take one stick and reposition it so the gaps are now a different width . Scouts enjoy seeing their leaders participating and love to be able to try to make things difficult for you let them move the sticks sometimes
Joey Scouts in 4 teams , situated north south east and west , in the centre approx 5-10 metres from the team bases (distance depends on indoor or out door situation) place 3-4 items for each team . The object of the game is for the first team to retrieve 3-4 objects and place these in their own home base .
Only one Joey from each team may run at any given time and may only take one object , this can be taken from the middle or from the base of another team .
Joey scouts need to be observant of each other team and determine where they take the item from depending how close another team is to completing the gathering of their set of objects .
the object of the game is to keep the ball out of your assigned area , throwing it out as quickly as possible . A leader who cannot see the action , blows a whistle periodically . who ever has the ball in their quarter at this time gains a point , the team with the least amount of points at the end of the game are victorious. Parents enjoy playing this game too !!
All Joey Scouts huddle into the circle , on a signal without using hands the Scouts try to push each other out of the ring , to the last scout standing
Joey Scouts clasp hands , without breaking hold , try to pull another Joey into the box , if the grip is broken , both scouts drop out of game , if a joey touches the box they are out of the game also .
Form teams at least 5 members to a team , course is about 10 metres long and teams are positioned about 4 metres apart . Each team sits on the ground one behind the other , knees bent and feet flat on the ground , holding the ankles of the Joey Scout behind them .
To move , each member of the team shifts their weight from their feet to their seat while keeping hold of the ankles of the person behind . Each team must cross all members over the line to finish .
While the Joey scouts attention is distracted a leader or parent will place gumnuts in piles all over a predetermined area . Joey Scouts in teams , one member nominated as collector the others search for objects . When the objects are located the Joey must make the sound allocated to their team (ie: rooster , dog , pig , duck etc ..... a leech is an interesting choice !! ) to draw the attention of the collector , no other sounds permitted .
Hide peculiar items through out the bush , Joey Scouts need to find as many as possible without telling the other scouts where they are located , go in teams with a parent leader and record the items on a piece of paper . It is not necessary to tell the scouts how many freaks of nature they need to find .
Joey scouts in teams each team has 2 buckets and an assortment of tools , place the tools and one bucket in front of each team , the other bucket some distance away , some obstacles in between . Each team needs to transfer the contents of one bucket into the other without touching either bucket .
