Relay lane about 10 meters long

HOW TO PLAY
1

Divide players into teams lined up behind a starting cone, with a matching turnaround cone placed down the lane for each team.

2

Shuffle animal cards and let the first runner on each team draw one without showing it to teammates.

3

That runner must move down the lane and back imitating the movement and sound of the animal shown, such as a giraffe's stride or an elephant's trumpet.

4

Teammates waiting in line try to guess the animal before the runner reaches the finish; once guessed correctly, the next player draws a new card and goes.

5

The first team to correctly guess through their whole team's cards wins the relay.
