As they get older, make the game more challenging by humming or whistling the tune and picking more obscure songs.
Name that tune: For younger children, sing the lyrics and stick with songs you're positive kids know.What other styles of walking or moving can they come up with? Interval training: Spice up a walk by challenging kids to incorporate different moves, such as running, hopping, skipping, scuttling sideways, spinning, etc.If you finish a word (say, it's your turn when "BREAKFAS" gets to you your only choice is to finish the word "breakfast"), you get a point. Start with a random letter, and then each player takes turns adding new letters. The challenge is to add letters to a word fragment-but not be the one to complete the word. Ghost: This is a spelling game suitable for older kids.Or, to make the game more challenging, have each new leader add a new element while keeping all the old ones going. The leader adds an element to the walk, like an arm motion, a sound, a hop, or so on. Follow the leader: Similarly, play follow-the-leader.Count up: Bring a pedometer and try some pedometer activities.Make it a contest or collaborate, whichever is more appealing to your crew of walkers.
Count off: Pick something to keep track of, from red cars to dead trees.Keep count and see how long your streak can get before dropping the ball. Catch: Bring a small ball with you and toss it from person to person as you walk.20 questions: Hide a small object (something from your bag, or that you find along the trail or sidewalk) in your hand and have kids try to figure out what it is by asking up to 20 questions.
