[For 5-Year-Olds] Recommended Indoor Play! A Collection of Exciting Games

Churippu sharippu

tulip sheriff

Hold hands with your friends and play while calling each other’s names! Let me share the idea for “Churippu Sharippu.” There’s nothing to prepare, so just hum the song together and play.

There are moments in the song where you call out names, which makes it great for learning your friends’ names.

It’s especially recommended for classes with new or transferring children! You can adapt the way you play, so it’s an idea that children from infants to preschoolers can enjoy.

Be sure to try it in your activities.

Evolution Rock-Paper-Scissors

@kidschallengeclub

Introducing Evolution Rock-Paper-Scissors! It’s a game where you keep playing rock-paper-scissors with lots of different people and evolve step by step! If you become a god within the time limit, you win! The kids suddenly start imitating grandpas and grandmas, and it’s so authentic I couldn’t stop laughing. It’s that kind of fun game!evolutionEvolution Rock-Paper-ScissorsRock-paper-scissorsRock-Paper-Scissors Gamebaby#GrandmaGodInteresting

Invincibly Cute – Naoki Endo

An amusing game where you evolve by winning rock-paper-scissors: “Evolution Janken.” Aim to become a god within the time limit! Everyone starts as a baby.

Since you’re a baby, you crawl to move and play rock-paper-scissors with people you meet.

If you win, you evolve and can move by hands-and-knees crawling.

If you lose, keep belly-crawling and look for your next opponent.

It goes like this: belly-crawl, hands-and-knees crawl, bear walk, adult, elderly person, and finally, you become a god and the game ends.

Evolve within the time limit!

Cup Game

@.vs9086

This time it’s a “cooperation-required cup game”! Materials: • 4 strings • 1 rubber band • Paper or plastic cups How to play: • Attach the 4 strings to the rubber band. • Line up the paper cups. • Tug the rubber band from four directions to grip the cup and stack them into a pyramid. This game builds fine hand control and concentration. Plus, one person can take the lead by giving instructions, and the other listens and responds. You can’t do it unless the two of you work together. My second son isn’t very cooperative and hasn’t really had experiences of accomplishing something together with friends, so I hope that, even through play, he can gradually gain experiences of achieving something with someone else. If you have paper cups, you can also branch out into other games like: • Sport stacking • Bowling ————— We share fun brain-boosting activities that elementary schoolers will get more absorbed in than a Switch—and that help grow their talents!

A mission you can’t clear without teaming up! Here’s a cup game idea.

Cooperation is a very important skill for 5-year-olds.

Through everyday interactions with friends and family, they begin to learn what cooperation means and why it matters.

By playing cooperatively with friends, children can develop the ability to understand others’ feelings and take turns.

The key to this game is that you cannot complete it without your teammates’ help.

You’ll need paper or plastic cups, rubber bands, and string.

Achieve the mission together with your friends and strengthen your bonds!

A fun cooperative race using mats! We explained the basic rules, then practice time! Each team came up with their own chants and how to position the kids. Of course, the go-to chant ended up being “Ready, set—go!” haha! It’s fun to watch and fun to do! And it’s a race that gives you a good workout. Definitely give it a try!Matt#RaceMatt RacetranslationCooperationTeam BattleReady, set, go!#The cheer is cute#perfectly_in_syncKids Challenge ClubFun exercisePhysical play (exercise)#Sawara Ward, Fukuoka City

Team competition! Here’s an idea for a cooperative mat race.

Start by deciding who will pull the mat and who will ride on it.

On the cue “Ready, set, go!”, the pullers drag the mat while the children on the mat jump.

By synchronizing their timing, they’ll inch closer to the goal! Once everyone gets used to the game, try competing in teams.

The time spent discussing strategies is a valuable opportunity for the children.

It’s a playful idea that deepens learning through play!

You only need two things to prepare! Here’s an idea for a newspaper sheet game.

It’s also a great option when you have to switch activities indoors due to sudden bad weather.

With just newspaper and tape, you can start playing right away! Set up a long chain of connected newspaper sheets under a chair.

While sitting on the chair, move both feet left and right to store the newspaper under the chair.

The key is to use the entire sole of your feet, which also makes it perfect for strengthening your core.

Say the same thing, do the opposite game

It’s simple but tricky—that’s what makes it fun! Here’s an idea for a game where what you say and what you do are opposites.

A teacher or guardian plays the role of the caller, giving directions like forward, backward, left, and right.

The children imitate what the caller says, but perform the opposite movement.

It’s a unique game! At first, it’s best to go slowly and carefully.

Once everyone gets used to it, try speeding up the tempo or adapting it into a three-person team match to make it more exciting.

Pasta Twirling Race

[After-school Day Service] Pasta Wrapping Race! 🍝

Here’s a perfect indoor activity: the Twirling Pasta Race.

Prepare some “pasta” by attaching yarn to a paper plate with tape.

On the free end of the yarn (the side without tape), attach an empty plastic wrap core.

To race, hold the core and twist it to wind the yarn around it.

It’s a fun competition to see who can wind the yarn—pretend pasta—onto the core the fastest.

To make it even more exciting, place a cutout of an animal with its mouth open between the paper plate and the core, and set up a little sign showing it “eating.” You could also time each round to add a competitive element.
