Animal hunting game
Make two identical lines with a flashcard and a cone every few meters. Create two teams at one end of the line, starting at a cone without a flashcard. The teacher calls out an animal, and the first child in both lines runs to pick up the flashcard of that animal. They run back and high-five the next child in line, who will run to get the next animal the teacher calls. When all the animals are picked up, the teacher can call an animal that should be left at the cone furthest away. Children continue until all flashcards are returned to the cones. First team that has placed all the flashcards at their places wins.
