Pikle
The rules of the game are pretty simple.
You'll need two bases (we used Mom's rugs), a softball and two softball gloves (if you don't have the gloves just use a ball that's not "hard."
Set up the two bases about 20 feet apart.
Two kids would be selected to be "it", one at each base.
The other kids would divide and go to the bases.
The game started by the two kids who were "it" tossing the ball to each other.
The object of the game was to time running from one base to the other without being tagged by the ball.
If you were tagged then you were "it" and the game continued, usually until all the kids were too tired to run anymore.
The fun of the game was getting the person who was "it" to throw a wide pitch or "steal" the base.
Camping Trip
You need at least two people who already know how to play the game.
Play begins by one person saying "I'M GOING ON A CAMPING TRIP AND I'M GOING
TO BRING...(at this point the person talking picks anything s/he would like
to bring on the trip. Let's use a sleeping bag as an example) A SLEEPING
BAG". The next person says "I'M GOING ON A CAMPING TRIP AND I'M GOING TO
BRING...(at this point the person talking picks anything s/he would like to
bring on the trip, but it must begin with the letter "G", since the last
letter of the first person 'camping accessory' was a "G". For example let's
say the second person wanted to bring a "GUARDIAN" they can bring that so
everyone says "OKAY YOU CAN BRING THAT ON OUR CAMPING TRIP". Say the third person hasn't caught on to the game yet and says, "I'M GOING ON A CAMPING
TRIP AND I'M GOING TO BRING HOT DOGS". Everyone should say, "NO, YOU CAN'T
BRING HOT DOGS
" and play continues to the next player until everyone has
caught onto the game.
