Flamingo Contest

When the guests arrive:

Step 1:  Split the children into two even teams.

Step 2:  Have each team pick on child to be the flamingo.

Step 3:  The two flamingos then have to stand on one leg and try to keep their balance.

Step 4:  The non-flamingos try their best to make the flamingo on the opposing team fall over, doing anything but touching the flamingo in any way.  They may make funny faces, dance around, fall over themselves, etc.

Step 5:  The flamingo that stays up the longest gets a point for his/her team.

Step 6:  Continue playing until each child has had a chance to be the flamingo.  The team with the most points at the end wins.
