Hi guys,

I've just recently took on a part time job at a local school, mainly after school and holiday club, the children range from 3-10years. I however have aquired most of my experience with children under the age of 8 years and find my ideas for the older children a bit limited...
can anyone help me out with some group game activities targeted towards the older children for when i'm with this group

like running around games? -

rounders, clock in the tower, bench hokey, mini football.

calm games -

face on the moon, when i go on holiday, chinese whispers, zip zap and boing

HTH if u dont know what any of them are tell me and ill explain

Put me in the novice section as well lol

I know 'Whats the time Mr Wolf ( although never played it with older children ) Tig/Tag and assault course type games.

Quieter games are a tough one ~ what about cooking, snack making for everyone ?

Is the Young enterprise scheme any good for ideas ?
