Too cold to go out? Try playing wall football
Bring the thrill of the gridiron to your living room wall with this pigskin version of Pin the Tail on the Donkey. For the game pieces, first create a goalpost from 2-inch-wide strips of poster board. (The uprights and the crossbar are each 20 inches long, and the post is 6 inches tall.) You could attach yours to the wall using poster tack. For the footballs, cut 5-inch-long shapes out of brown card stock. There may be some in the scrapbook aisle of your craft store that looks like a football leather. Use a white opaque paint marker to decorate and add players’ names to the footballs. Put a blob of poster tack on the back of each one. Players line up about six feet away from the goal. One at a time, each player is blindfolded, spun around three times by another person, and set loose to try to stick their football between the uprights. (No reaching out your empty hand to feel the wall.) Play several rounds with three points awarded for each field goal. Highest score wins.
