Archery
Players shoot a set number of arrows at a target, scoring by ring, highest total wins. Run it in small flights with a clear rotation: shoot, wait for the all-clear, then collect arrows together. This game needs real supervision — an instructed adult running the line, one shooter per target lane, and everyone else behind the shooting line until arrows are called. A local range or camp archery setup provides the equipment and the safety briefing for you.

Jockeys up
Players pair up with someone of similar size and decide who is the horse and who is the jockey. The horses walk in a small circle in the middle, one behind the other; the jockeys form a larger circle around them, facing the opposite direction. The leader calls "Horses, go!" and the inner circle starts moving, then "Jockeys, go!" and the outer circle runs the other way. On "Jockeys up!", every jockey sprints to find their horse and jump on for a piggyback — the last pair up is eliminated. Call direction changes to keep everyone guessing, and play on soft ground.
