Divide the players into two teams and have them line up at a starting line. Mark a line 25 feet from the starting line and place a cone on this line. When you say "Go," the players must hop to the cone and then run backwards back to their teammates. The players must tag the next player in line who must do the same thing. The first team to finish the relay race wins the game. For other wacky race ideas, have the players crab walk, bear crawl, hop on one foot or skip.
Wacky Baseball

Have the players divide into two teams and play this game on a baseball diamond with the same rules as baseball. However, create a wacky bat by duct taping a large beach towel around a bat and using a beach ball as the baseball. Players can throw the beach ball directly at players to tag them out. The first team to score 15 points wins the game. For another variation, use a beach ball instead of a kickball in a game of kickball to create a wacky game.
