"Grab the Present" game Divide the class into three teams. Each team will have a chance to send one player to grab a present from a desk. However, before they can play, they must first make a sentence that will be shown to them. Once they correctly say the sentence, they can then proceed to the desk to play. When the music starts, the player walks around the desk. As soon as the music stops, they must quickly grab one of the presents on the desk. The team whose player successfully grabs a present gets points for their team.
"Ice Cream Relay" Divide the class into three teams. One player from each team will come to the front. On the desk, you'll see an "ice cream" and on the other desk, a cup with a ping-pong ball on top. When Teacher says "go," you'll have to pick up the "ice cream" and carefully transfer it to the other side of the table. Then, pick up the cup with the ping-pong ball and bring it to the other side. The team that can move both the "ice cream" and the ping-pong ball without dropping them, and finishes first, is the winner!
