Materials: Straws, Peas or beans, bowl
Simple relay structure for this game. 4 teams line up at one end. Place a bowl of peas (or whatever you are using) at the other end.
The first player from each team has to run to the other end and pick up a pea by sucking it on the end of the straw. Then they must carry it back to their team. If the pea falls off while they are returning, they must pick it up again (with the straw) and continue back.
To win, a team must get all of it's players to bring back 1 pea each.

We played this game and it was a riot! I used dried peas, like for pea soup. Several swallowed them by accident, but since they are food, it was ok. I changed it a little by letting them run as many times as they could within 10 minutes. Then counted the peas, and the team with the most peas, won.
The only trouble is if you have a wise-guy who wants to scoop up extra peas with his hands. And it was a little messy to count all the peas, but that was ok.
I recommend this one highly!
