This modified version of the classic Brooklyn game Skelzies is perfect for 2-6 players and can be played while physical distancing outside! Grab some chalk, a few small stones, marker lids, or bottle caps and meet your neighbours!!

Grab some chalk and cover your neighbourhood in games like this one!

1. Create your game board on the ground with chalk, mimicking this picture.
2. Place a stone at the start line and flick it around the board from 1-13. If you miss then it is the next player’s turn. See who can get to 13 in the least amount of turns.
3. Remember to stay at least 2m / 6ft apart to keep everyone safe!

Print the poster and invite your neighbours to play!

Scavenger Hunt
Building Community While Stopping the Spread

Some communities have put rainbows and teddy bears in their windows and gardens and let the neighbourhood go on a scavenger hunt.

Scavenger Hunt Instructions

1. Reach out to your neighbours and decide on an item or theme. It could be pictures, drawings, teddy bears, cats and dogs, or whatever else you can imagine.
2. Have your neighbours place the items somewhere visible to passersby.
3. HAPPY SEARCHING!!

Enjoy the results and tell us your favourite parts!
