EASTER EGG RACE.

Source: Games for Everybody
Category: GAMES FOR SPECIAL DAYS.





Color an even number of eggs, half the number one color, the other
half, another. Place all the eggs of one color on the floor in a line
at intervals of one foot. At the end of the line put a basket. Form a
similar line, a little distance from the other, of the remaining eggs.
For convenience, we will say one line is of green eggs, the other of
pink.

Choose two players as leaders, who select their sides. One side
chooses the green row, and the other, the pink. Two, one player from
each side, play at a time.

When all is ready the two leaders stand by their respective rows, each
is given a large spoon, and when told to "go," each one spoons up the
eggs, one at a time, and carries them to the basket at the end of the
line. The one who succeeds in spooning up all his eggs first wins for
his side.

Thus each player in turn works for his side until all have had a
chance and the side whose players were the most successful is the
winning side.
