Ben's class is only 14 kids, so they were able to play all of the games as a unit...the first one was sort of a snowbound version of musical chairs, but with gym-balls...
The next game involved breaking the kids into 2 lines that raced to see who could pass the ball back over their heads...
and then forwards between their legs...Ben's team won...
The next few games were relay races, with the kids all running and slipping and falling and screaming and giggling...nobody is sure who won...
Then there was the time-honored running-in-a-zigzag-carrying-a-frisbee race...
Ben had such a fun time that he kept running even after the game was done...he wasn't the only one...
Next the kids played a tag game in wheel-shaped area, only able to run on the rim and the spokes...they ran and ran and ran, and then all collapsed in the snow...
The final event was a sled race in which teams of 3 had to rotate through pulling, pushing, and riding...here you can see Cullen riding while Tara pulls and Ben pushes (the extra person is Cullen's sister, who wanted to help)...
In this picture, you can see Ben riding and Tara pulling while Cullen pushes (Tara liked to pull)...Cullen mostly pushed Ben down, so they weren't very fast through this rotation...
Everyone had a great time, ate sugary snacks afterwards, and Ben's going to sleep like a log tonight...

What delightful pictures of rosy cheeked children in colorful winter gear. They are having so much fun and I think the photographer is, too!
