How to play
Draw a large circle in the dirt and divide it into as many spaces as there are players. This is the Earth. Each player chooses a country name. Players take turns throwing a ball in the air and saying "I declare war on (country name)". The player with that country must grab the ball and yell "stop", while the other players run and hide themselves. Player who caught the ball can take three steps, then throw the ball to hit another player. If the player is hit, the thrower gets to take some of that player's land. Continue until one player has conquered the world.

Wheel of Fortune
Wheel of Fortune is an entertaining game where contestants take turns spinning a wheel to determine a dollar amount, then guessing the letters in a blanked out phrase. Correct letter guesses are worth money (example: if phrase has 3 T's and the spin landed on $100, the contestant earns $300). Only the player who correctly guesses the entire phrase gets to keep their money from that round. Play several rounds to determine a winner. Roll a die to determine money value if a wheel is not available. To guess a vowel, contestants must "buy a vowel" for $250.

Shuffle-Shuffle
You get all the chairs in a circle and have the people playing sit on them. Make sure there are no empty chairs. Then pick someone to stand in the middle of the circle. The aim for him/her is to take a seat. Chits are made with certain details for example "Everyone wearing black clothing". The person in the middle reads the chit from the pile of chits and begins to find a seat. The aim for the people sitting is to not let the player in the middle take a seat from them. To stop them from sitting down the players that are sitting down shuffle from chair to chair. Players can change the direction at any time. There should be one less chair than the number of people playing the game so that there will always be one person who does not have a seat and that person can stand in the middle and read the next chit.
