Mat Challenge

Number of players: can be played with 1 or more players

Equipment:

1 mat per person (eg picnic rugs, blankets)

Marker for start and finish line

Clock or watch to record the time taken.

Playing Space:

Garden or outside space or wide inside space with furniture moved back.

Starting line one side of the playing area and finish line opposite.

Aim:

To record the fastest time across the finishing line.

How to Play:

Players start on their mats behind the start line. On the word ‘go’ the player(s) must get to the finishing line without touching the floor in between. Only the mats can touch the floor and the players can only stand on the mats. The fastest time wins. If playing on your own, have 3 goes and try to beat your time each go.

Try turning around at the finishing line and coming back to the start line.
