MATERIALS
- A round wheel-shaped object to stand in for a cheese, such as a foam disc
- A steep grassy hill
HOW TO PLAY
1
Gather all racers at the top of the hill in a line.
2
Release the round "cheese" object to roll down the steep slope ahead of the racers.
3
On the signal, racers chase the rolling cheese down the hill by running, sliding, or tumbling however they can stay upright.
4
The cheese usually reaches the bottom well before any racer, so races are typically judged by who reaches the bottom first.
5
Award the win to the first racer down, and consider padding or a gentler slope for a safer backyard version.
