Make This DIY Game:

Before your spring event, put the Frog Craft together following the easy directions included. Have some kids help you as a fun activity.

Also you will want to keep your Frogs on Lily pads in the center of the pool. The easy way to do this is to hot glue clear plastic 9 ounce cups evenly spaced to the bottom of the Hula Hoop. (See the video above)

Next, apply a washable insect tattoo to each Ping Pong type ball for the tossing ball supply.

Now you are ready for the setup. 

NOTE: These steps are simple - but we know how hectic the few days before the carnival can be - so we recommend that you make this game a week or more before your event!

Game Setup:

Simply fill your pool with a few inches of water to make sure the frogs are floating but not so much where the hula hoop is floating - to keep the frogs in the middle of the pond.

Next, add the floating lily pads to the pond with the attached mini pails

Have a bucket to keep the "insect" tossing balls ready for players.

Note: Children should be attended at ALL TIMES when around any water activity or toy.

How to Play This Easy Spring Carnival Game:

Players are handed 3 insect-decorated tossing balls.

The object of the game is to land at least one ball into a pail on the floating frog lily pads.

The more insects you get in a mini floating pail, the nicer prize the player receives.

Our suggestion to pass out winnings:

0 or 1 Bug in Mini Pails = a consolation prize
2  Bugs in Mini Pails = a medium prize
3  Bugs in Mini Pails = a top prize

Additional Hints & Tips:

Of course, this can easily be setup and played inside in a school hallway or gym too! 

This is a fantastic game for School Spring Carnivals and Easter Egg Hunts too! We love that the buckets stack for storage and of course, the large leaves store flat. This simple DIY game can be used for years to come!
