INSTRUCTIONS: The
numbers 1 through 9 are marked on the ground within throwing distance of

the game line up behind the number 1.
Have them note carefully their place in line. The
first child tries to throw the ball into the basket.
If successful, he moves to the number 2 and shoots again.
He continues to shoot from successively higher numbers until he
misses. When he
misses, the next child in line has his turn.
Each child starts at 1 and tries to put the ball into the basket
from each number. When he
misses, he stays at the number which he missed and awaits his next turn. The
first child to complete all the numbers is the winner.
If you do not have a basket, or wish to play indoors, use a box and
a slightly deflated ball.
