Parts
of a Canoe
- Skill Level: Basic
- Skill Learned: Parts of a canoe
- Precautions: If the canoe is on land
- none; if in the water - watch that the person doesn't fall in.
- Equipment: 1 or 2 canoes (depending
on number of players), blindfolds, parts of the canoe on cards (e.g.,
deck, bow, stern, bow seat, stern seat, thwart, yoke, gunwale,
freeboard, keel)
Game: One person picks a canoe part
card. After they see what the part is, they are blindfolded. They can be guided
to the canoe by their team-mates. They try and place (or stick) the card
on the appropriate part of the canoe by feeling the canoe with their
hands. Players take turns being blindfolded and labelling parts. The game
is over when the entire canoe has been properly labelled.
