Flip-over game

Fierce close match! The flipping game!!!

Get the crowd going with a team battle! Here’s an idea for a flip-over game.

Split into two teams to compete.

Like Othello, prepare a board with two colors on opposite sides and start the game! When the time is up, the team with more of their color showing wins.

Kids will be totally absorbed and eager to take on the challenge—no doubt about it! Before you begin, remind everyone to watch out for collisions and falls while they’re focused on the game.

Give it a try!

A recreational activity incorporating parkour

Olympic host city! A unique after-school program that incorporates France-born parkour—jumping, running, vaulting, balancing—learning through play!

Let’s work on improving children’s athletic abilities! Here are some ideas for activities that incorporate parkour.

Parkour is a culture originating in France; by integrating movements like running, jumping, and climbing, it trains the mind and body and aims for artistic movement.

In recent years, we’ve been seeing it more often on social media, haven’t we? This time, let’s create a course using boxes and mats made of soft materials and try parkour.

It’s a wonderful idea that helps children understand weight transfer and how to use their bodies.

balloon volleyball

Balloon art fun with balloons! How to play balloon volleyball that even beginners can enjoy easily♪

Let’s have fun moving our bodies! Here are some ideas for balloon volleyball.

Volleyball is a sport where two teams face off across a net, hitting the ball back and forth to score points.

This time, all you need is a single balloon.

You can even find them at 100-yen shops these days, so it’s easy to prepare.

The way to play is simple: two or more people face each other and tap the balloon with their hands to keep a rally going.

Once you get used to it, try counting out loud or playing a word-chain game (shiritori) while you rally.

Thousand-string Fishing (Senbon-tsuri)

Perfect for summer festivals and events☆Senbon-tsuri (lucky fishing game)

The festival game Senbon Tsuri that everyone loves—I’ve heard some regions call it “Senbon Biki.” What about in your area? In Senbon Tsuri, you pull a string that’s connected to a prize, and you get whatever you hit.

It’s fun precisely because it’s so simple: you just pull a string.

I wonder if old-fashioned candy shops still have small lottery games modeled after Senbon Tsuri.

If the prizes are candy and snacks, it’s an activity everyone can enjoy, from little kids to slightly older boys and girls.

At a large venue, a jumbo Senbon Tsuri could even be the main attraction!
