Number of Players: 4 or more players
You will need: a blanket and lots of space!
How to Play:
Children race by dragging a blanket to one end of the room to another, there’s only one catch – a friend must be sitting on the blanket. To make it more interesting have the children play the game in a relay style by having children split into teams and each player that runs gets to sit down at the other end of the room, the person sitting on the blanket must then run for the next player and so on.

RUN YOUR RACE: Just as you were racing in the ‘blanket race’ game, life is often compared to a race. Jesus calls us to run this race of life with wisdom – allowing Him to lead us. Paul said that to run this race we must cast off every restraint… unlike in this game where you each had to drag your friend around with you!
