Materials: Two empty buckets, two long pieces of rope, various programming materials (ex. Hula hoops, rope, land skis, etc)

How to Facilitate: Toxic Waste Retrieval

  • Use the two long pieces of rope to form two large circles(the ‘fallout zone’) .
  • Place a bucket (the ‘nuclear waste’) in the center of each circle.
  • Split the group in to two teams, with each team taking a circle.
  • The goal is for each team to retrieve their nuclear waste without stepping inside the fallout zone and without tipping the bucket over.
  • They may use whatever materials you brought or anything they can find in the area to help them retrieve it.
