Chat about St Swithin - Patron Saint of Weather - then let the Beavers change into the old clothes that they have brought with them
1.Outside Game: Water Relay
Beavers in teams. Place a small amount of water into a paper cup. See which team can carry the water on their heads and empty into a bucket without spilling.
2.Outside Game: Water Rounders
Use water balloons instead of balls. Usual rules apply!
3.Outside Game: Sponge Battle
Similar rules to volley ball but with wet sponges.
Make a ‘net’ with 2 poles and rope. Beavers (in 2 teams) line up on either side of net armed with pieces of wet sponge. Have a bucket of water ready to ‘refresh’ the sponges. See who can get the most sponges into the other teams ½ after (say) 2 minutes.
Come in, and get dry. Have a (wet) drink!
