Activities
Bubble Duck Walk – everyone stands facing eachother with bubble wands and solution. One person gets ready to do their best “duck” walk in between everyone while they blow bubbles. Try not to laugh.
Quack, Honk, Duck – everyone sits in a circle facing each other. There are three actions and the object is to try to say them as fast as you can. Whoever is next has to react quickly. You can disqualify people if they don’t react the appropriate way OR you can just let everyone remain in the game and start again. Watch out for the laughter. Here are the commands that correspond with the actions:
Quack – to the right
Honk – reverse
Duck – next person ducks
