Down-Down Birthday Party Game
by Rebecca N.
(Sault Ste Marie, Canada )
This is a game of catch with a unique twist. The only thing needed is a tennis ball. You throw the ball continuously back and forth until somebody drops it. When someone drops the ball you say "Down on one knee". That person has to drop to one knee. Then the ball is thrown back and forth again, if the same person drops it a second time, you say "Down on two knees". If the same person drops the ball again you say "Down on one elbow", "Down on two elbows" and finally "Down on your chin." If you drop it after that, you are out. But remember, the kids have to stay in the position they're in to catch and throw the ball.
