Water Balloon Race!

Wednesday, March 24th, 2010

Hey kids! Wanna try something wet and fun outside? Get ready for some Water Balloon Race!

All you need to have are:
1. 2 balloons – deflated (meaning there is no air inside)
2. water from your faucet
3. 2 chairs placed in the lawn
4. Playmates, cousins, kid neighbors!

  • First, group yourselves into two (2) groups. Both teams should have the same number of players.
  • Next, put in water inside your two (2) balloons. You may use more than 2 balloons, though. You can smack the hole of the balloon onto the mouth of the faucet sink.
  • Yeah, go ask help from mom or dad for this one!
  • Make sure it is half-full. Then remove the balloon from the faucet and tie the balloon so water will not spill.
  • You’re all set then! Each player will put the balloon on his head.
  • You will race and run towards the chairs, making sure your balloon does not fall off your head. Don’t use your hands!
  • Make a turn when you reach the chair, then run towards your next team mate.
  • Put the balloon on top of his head. Then he races towards the chair again.
  • Repeat this until the last player finishes the race.
  • The team that finished first without losing the balloon from his head, wins!

How fun! :)

How to Teach your Dog to Play Frisbee

Monday, March 22nd, 2010


Howdy, Pilots! Do you know the newest game here in ActionJetz? Our AJ Scientists are cooking up some cool and exciting game called “Dog Fight!” But before you click on play, let me just help you teach your dog to play Frisbee!

It’s pretty easy you see, all you need to do is to Head out to the park or your backyard, as long as you have lots of space, and most of all, have fun!

Come On in My Kitchen
Your dog will dig his disk if you put his food in it. Take the platter away when he’s finished eating so that it doesn’t become a chew toy.

Shake, Rattle and Roll.
When your pup feels peppy, get down on his level and talk excitedly to him. Then roll and shake the disk.

Fakin’ It.
Still at your dog’s level, fake tossing or rolling the disk. When he realizes he’s been duped and starts to run for the toy, hold it out. After he grabs it, give a tug to make sure he is holding it firmly. Then praise him. Do this several times.

Tuesday, March 16th, 2010

It’s Spring time kids! I’m sure you’re ready to play outside and have fun with your friends :)

Everyone seems to be enjoying the sun, so why don’t you make your own Spring Camp at your very own backyard! Don’t snob it pilot! This is fun because your friends are coming over, and you’ll be eating big, chunky, S’mores! YUM!

To your Parents: This is a fun activity that needs the participation of your child and you. It’s a time to bond with your kids and their friends. Help them set up the Spring Camp, and cook S’mores! Besides, this is way cheaper than an out-of-town summer camp.

How to Build the Spring Camp

Kids, make sure you ask mom and dad to help you with this. Be careful.

Materials for the Spring Camp:

1. Tent
2. Sleeping bags
3. Some pillows
4. Favorite toys like your ActionJet!, books, art materials, etc
5. Your Friends – Invite them to set up your tent and share the fun!

Build the tent in your backyard with the help of your parents. Roll out sleeping bags inside the tent. Bring in your favorite stuffs you’d like to share with your friends and neighborhood kids.

How to Cook S’mores

Ingredients for the S’mores:

1. Marshmallows
2. Chocolate candy bars
3. Graham crackers
4. Green sticks or coat angers
5. Bonfire (or barbecue grill)

Get 1 large graham cracker and break it in half. Cover half of the graham cracker with a chocolate bar.

Put 1-2 marshmallows on the stick and hold it over the fire until roasted. Get mom or dad to help you with this!

When the marshmallow is roasted, place on top of the chocolate bar, then put the other graham cracker on top and bite down.

Be careful: marshmallow is still hot!

Share the Spring Camp with your friends while munching on yummy S’mores!

And don’t forget to bring your favorite ActionJet toy, pilot! :)

Additional Note to Parents:

A Backyard Camp is a parent-organized, summer camp program that alternates between different neighborhood backyards. A teacher and assistant, hired by the families are responsible for providing opportunities for learning and play.
