Pokemon is a game we played since young and i believe we all still like this game as it is still fun and exciting. We have to capture different pokemon and fight gym leaders to get their badge in order to fight the elite four as without it we will not be able to enter. Also, we can collect all the pokemon and that is always my dream! So start collecting them now!

Dog and Bone!


Dog and bone!


Dog and Bone is a game where a group of people split into 2 team and the members are numbered such that 2 player from the opposite team will have a same number. The referee will then call a number or numbers and the players who have their numbers called will rush forward to pick up an item in the middle and rush back to their team without getting tapped by the opponents. It is a very simple and fun game so start playing it now!

While playing, do remember to drink a lot of water as u dehydrate easily as u are constantly running!

Hide - And - Seek

When was the last time when you played hide - and - seek? Cannot remember? Me too, the last time I played it was many many years ago. I suddenly got the urge to play it again.

Things needed:

I believe all of us should know. The more people playing it, the merrier it is.
As for the venue, of course is the bigger the place and also more hiding spots. This would make this game more challenging.

Feeling itchy?

If you are feeling the urge, hurry up form a group and appoint one catcher and START PLAYING!!

(When the catcher is counting, hurry up and find a hiding spot)

(How about a game of hide and seek now?)

(This conclude our project for gaming. How did my team fare? Do not hesitate to leave your comments behind and also choose the game you loved most. We hoped to leave some impact on you.)

Kicking those Feathers!!!

Something that involves kicking feathers...

So I bet you were once a kid / still one now and during that period of time, YOU WERE hitting balloons to keep them in the air :D. Well there was a better substitute to that!
It is called Chapteh if you didn't get it...
 Here's a reference to your "balloon game":
image from:
 
Quick question: 
That's a very long link. Who would type it in and not using COPY and PASTE.
 
Answer:
All of us, when we didn't realize there's  a copy and paste function when we first started using COMPUTERS!
 
 
  

What you will need:

-The Chapteh itself! (Or USE BALLOONS like a little girl you are! Unless you are one) :D
 
-1 or more players!
 
-Your feet
 
-Shoes if u are afraid your precious little foot may get injured. Aw~
 
-A suitable open space with at least 3m in height and enough space for players, so they DO NOT KICK SOMEONE ELSE. I know u would do that! DON'T!
 
Here's a picture of  3 Chaptehs :

Rules:

-Firstly, what are rules? I do not know of any which will never be broken :D
 
-Classic rule: Using only your foot to kick the Chapteh, if the Chapteh touches the ground you're out.
 
-MAKE YOUR OWN RULES, you should feel like the master of the world!
 

How to win:

-Competitive playing only!: Most kicks of the Chapteh without letting it touch the ground.
 
-Non-competitive playing : Kick it around like SOME HYPER ACTIVE & MARTIL ARTIST GUINEA PIG!
LIKE THIS:
 
 
So that's it, once you've mastered your kicking skills u can try to jump kick these:

8-ball pool (cue sports)


Image from: commons.wikimedia.org

The 8-ball is the most commonly played game in cue sports, it is played with a full rack of fifteen balls and the cue ball. Player have to claim a suit (commonly stripes or solid) and pocket all of them before legally pocketing the 8 ball. If the 8 ball is pocketed early by accident, the opponent wins.

Pool is a great game to play after school or work with your friends, it helps to relax and bond with your friends.

A tip to win in pool is a good break (scattering the ball rack), having the balls widely spread on the table makes it easy to pocket them.

And the secret to a good break.....

Catching is a game where a person is chasing a person or more. It is a fun game we play when we are young but games are for all ages. Also it can help to exercise your body as we are running constantly by chasing someone. Whats more when we play this, we will not be addicted to computer games and we will prevent our eyes from degrading.

When playing this game, we have to remember to drink more water as we will perspire a lot and thus will dehydrate easily. Also, if running on uneven ground, remember to wear shoes as we may fall easily and may hurt our toes.

Boat Challenge

A simple game that requires just the use of paper.

 
Images from www.google.com


How It Works?  

Each player gets a sheet of paper and fold it into a boat-like structure.
They would then find a spot where there would be water flowing around the area such as lakes, pond, etc.
They would compete on about how fast their boat moves.
They would how long their boat could manage to survive through a flowing current.

Game Win / Game Lose

If the following player's boat gets to sink into the water first loses.

Requirements

Knowledge:
The player must learn how to fold a paper into a boat-like structure

Images taken from www.google.com

Places:
There must be a water flowing current spot where the current flows along a specific direction

Challenges Extras

After the player knows how to fold a boat through paper, they could modify,change and enhance
1) which requires critical thinking of how should the boat be made, what kind of shape suits it etc.

2) which requires creativity on how beautiful their boat is etc... i.e. having another designing contest on how   the boat appearance should be such as making a swan design of a boat.
Images taken from www.google.com

3) which require certain technology that allows the boat to move by itself even though its material is made out of paper i.e. a paper boat structuring a fan blowing against the air to move about.
