Game description

The traditional task of a broom – sweeping, can easily become a fun game for an unlimited number of children. Cover an area of about one square meter evenly with sand. The objective for each candidate is to sweep as much as possible sand across the finishing line, which is between 2 – 4 metres away. As soon as he has done, he sweeps the sand with a smaller broom and a dustpan into a bucket. The winner is the player, who got the most sand into his bucket. You can measure the sand by either by height or weight. If you have no sand available, you can play the same game with small stones, balloons or even dry leaves. Whatever you use, it has to go into the bucket at the end.

Judging

The winner is the player who gets the most sand (rocks, balloons, leaves) in the bucket at the finishing line.
