Basket Toss Games!
 
Around the Islands Basket Toss
You will need:
One basketball hoop or 5 gallon bucket.
1 raffia hula skirt
1 ball (basketball or playground ball)
Chalk or paper cut outs in the shape of the Hawaiian Islands
Set up: Tie a grass hula skirt around a
basketball hoop or 5 gallon bucket. If you will be playing this game on a paved surface
use chalk to draw the outline of the 7 Hawaiian Islands in a horse shoe shape around the
basket/bucket. If you will be playing the game in a grassy area lay out paper cut outs in
the shape of the Hawaiian Islands in a horse shoe shape around the basket/bucket. For an
extra added touch paint the ball brown with three black ovals like a coconut.
To play: Each player starts at one end of
the Hawaiian Islands and takes a turn tossing the ball into the basket/bucket. If a player
gets a basket then they get to move on to the next island and take another shot. If a
basket is missed then it is the next players turn. The first player to make it around all
7 islands wins! |
Hula Around the Islands Basket Toss
You will need:
One basketball hoop or 5 gallon bucket
1 raffia hula skirt
1 ball (basketball or playground ball)
Chalk or paper cut outs in the shape of the Hawaiian IslandsSet
up: Tie a grass hula skirt around a basketball hoop or 5 gallon bucket. If you
will be playing this game on a paved surface use chalk to draw the outline of the 7
Hawaiian Islands in a horse shoe shape around the basket/bucket. If you will be playing
the game in a grassy area lay out paper cut outs in the shape of the Hawaiian Islands in a
horse shoe shape around the basket/bucket. For an extra added touch paint the ball brown
with three black ovals like a coconut.
To play: This game is played similar to the Around the
Islands Basket Toss game but is a bit more challenging. Each player starts at one end of
the Hawaiian Islands. Before taking a turn shooting the ball into the basket/bucket the
first player makes up a hula move (a simple hip, hand, or foot movement). If the ball goes
in the basket/bucket then the player stays in the game, if they miss they have to sit out
until the next game. The second play then does the hula move the first player made up and
adds their own hula move to the end before taking their shot. Once each person has gone
then everyone who made the 1st basket moves onto the 2nd island.
Each player again adds a new hula move before taking their shot. Those who make each
basket continue on to each island. The players who make it to the 7th island
and make the shot are the winners and by the end of the game the players will have made up
their own hula dance! It is good to have Hawaiian music on in the background during this
game to get everyone in the hula dancing move. |
