You
will need:
- a large play
space to allow for running
What to do:
- tell children
that they are all reindeer who help Santa by pulling his sleigh but
they need to practise working together before Christmas Eve
- choose one child
to be Rudolph
- he leads the
other 'reindeer' or children around the play space
- he leaps onto
rooftops, crawls under fences, jumps over rivers, leaps over clouds
and stops near chimneys
- choose a new
Rudolph or leader and repeat
- you may have
to call out some suggestions as to where Rudolph is leading the reindeer
next however, if the leader is doing a good job of leading, don't
intervene
- change Rudolph
frequently so that all children have a chance to lead
