Where it all started...
Trefoil Race
(You will need a fairly large space)
GAMES
1. Divide into relay teams of about four girls per team
2.Have the teams get together in four rows
3. The first racer will balance the trefoil on the end of a
spoon that is in their mouth
4.The racer will go a predetermined length, have to
pick up a clean spoon for the next teammate to use,
then make their way back to the starting point
5. Once they get back to their team the next racer must
place the clean spoon in their mouth and racer one
will have to use the spoon (can use her hands to
hold the end of the spoon) to drop the trefoil into the
next racers spoon that is between her teeth
6.Repeat until all teammates have raced!
Trefoil Cookie Pitch
Each girl will need one Trefoil cookie.
1. Instruct girls to smell, feel, break to hear, look at and
even taste if they want their Trefoil.
2. Now have girls create a sales pitch with the goal of
selling the Trefoil cookie
3. Break girls into teams and have them share their
skits with the whole group!
