Game – CHEWING GUM RACES

Supplies Needed:   Sticks of chewing gum, work gloves, and shopping bags.  Individually wrapped sticks of gum are placed inside the shopping bags (at least one stick per player).   2 or 3 shopping bags are placed at a goal 20 feet away from the starting line.  Choose 2 or 3 children and give each of them a pair of work gloves.   Have the children recite the memory verse.  Say “On your mark, get set go!”  The children then put on the gloves, run down to their bag, pull out a piece of gum, unwrap it with the gloves on, chew.  The first child to get the gum into their mouth and chewed is the winner.   You may want to have a championship round.   Remember to repeat the memory verse several times between each race.
