Fill the Christmas Stocking Race

Each team needs a sock, a spoon, a bucket, and some candy.

Divide the children into teams.

Ask the children to stand on one end of the living room and hang up the socks at the other end.

Place a bucket with candy and a spoon in front of each team.

A child from each team shall now take a piece of candy with the spoon, carry it to the sock and put the candy inside.

Now the child runs back to his team and gives the spoon to the next child.

The first team that puts all of the candy in the sock wins.

You can make the competition more difficult by requiring the children to hold the spoon with the mouth.
