Foxes and Squirrel

 

From Family Fun

 

Players stand in a circle.  The foxes (two tennis balls) are passed quickly around the circle, as in a game of hot potato.  Remember, no throwing the tennis balls; foxes fun, but they do not fly.  Squirrels, however, are another story.  They leap from tree to tree.  Which means the player with a Nerf-ball squirrel gets to toss it – underhand, please – at his fellow players.  As in dodgeball, you’re out if the squirrel-ball tags  you, but the thrower is out if you catch it.  And all the while you have to be ready to receive and pass the two fox balls going around the circle (drop them and you’re out as well).  You might try starting your game with just 1 fox, adding more as the group gets better at the game.
