The sports day is an important event that serves as the culmination of kindergarten life for the eldest children.

There are events where children can showcase their individual growth, performances that unite hearts with their peers, and activities that deepen bonds with parents—so it can be hard to choose.

Selecting events that bring smiles to everyone is an important task for teachers as well.

Here, we introduce activities like the Hula Hoop Relay and Ice Cream Lick that foster teamwork while being fun.

Find ideas for a wonderful event that will stay in the children’s hearts.

Fun Events (21–30)

Super Mario-style ball toss game

Introducing a Super Mario-style ball toss that makes you feel like you’re inside a video game.

The rules are the same as a regular ball toss.

When the start signal sounds, throw balls into the basket with a Mario illustration on it.

Prepare colorful balls, and you can even stick Mario illustrations on some to turn them into “item balls,” turning it into a ball toss where you collect items—sounds fun, right? The winner is decided by the number of balls that land in the basket.

Give it a try together and enjoy seeing what kinds of items you can collect!

Hide-and-seek at the sports day?

Parents and children will both get excited! Here are some ideas for playing hide-and-seek at a sports day.

Hide-and-seek is usually a game played during everyday playtime, right? This time, let’s try it at a sports day.

It’s especially recommended for preschools and kindergartens where children wear the same hats and gym clothes for the event.

After hide-and-seek, setting up a corner where parents and children can deepen their bonds through dance or interactive play will make things even more lively.

Give it a try!

Discover the fun of working together! Introducing ideas for a big puzzle challenge.

Many teachers may be unsure about parent–child events where guardians participate together.

This time, let’s try a puzzle that 2-year-old children and their guardians work on collaboratively.

What you’ll need are cards with random animals drawn on them, animal headpieces, and a puzzle made from cardboard.

Starting this for the first time on the day of the sports festival might make the children anxious, so it’s best to incorporate it into everyday activities for practice.

Team Competition (1–10)

Othello

2015 Nursery School Sports Day! Parent-Child Othello Competition ♪ (#52)
Othello

When you think of Othello, you picture a game where you sandwich your opponent’s black or white disks with your own color and flip them.

But how about trying Othello as a sports day event—not on a grid, but by using the entire field, running around until the last second and flipping disks as fast as you can? Prepare disks with different colors on the front and back, and keep flipping the opposing team’s color to your team’s color.

At the end, like in a ball-toss game, count your team’s colored disks one by one to determine the result.
