2. Typical Household Items
Consider these two items:
The Ubiquitous The Lowly
Cute Plushie Shoebox Lid
3. Objectives
• Two teams of 4
– On each team:
• 2 Defenders
• 2 Attackers
• At a coin toss, the winner selects to carry the
plushie or the box lid
• The objective for the Defenders is to move their
household item to the goal, while fending off
Attackers.
• The objective for the Attackers is to “steal” the
opponent’s household object and take it to
behind their goal line.
4. Objectives
• When a team has both items behind their goal,
The Defenders and Attackers stand on each side of
the goal. The box lid is positioned and the
Defenders throw the plushie on to the box lid.
• The Defenders have 2 chances to toss the plushie.
Here is the point system:
– Hit the box and sticks on first try= 5 pts
– Hit the box on first try, but doesn’t stay on box= 1 pt
