Citation: SPARK Activity. (2011). Minimal Equipment SPARK Favorites. Physical Education &
Wellness SPARK.
Equipment Needed: At least 2 players, music, a large play area, and about 16 or more cones.
Activity Description:
1. The objective of Crazy Cones is to finish with more cones up or down than the
other team.
2. First, divide the group of participants into two teams, the Standers who must set the
cones standing up while the Squatters must topple over standing cones.
3. When the music starts, participants must fast walk, not run, to the cones and must
topple or stand up the cones depending on which role they were given.
4. At the end of the game, the participants will count how many cones were knocked
down and how many cones are standing up and determine who wins by having the
greater amount of cones knocked or standing.
5. The rules of this game is to:
NOT run while playing
Do not guard a cone, always be constantly moving
Only use your hands to set up or knock down the cones, unless instructed
otherwise
Leadership Consideration
1. Consider having different types of cones with varies colors and weight.
2. If participants are having trouble with manipulating the cones, try using lighter
weight cones.
3. Consider changing it up with the activity sometimes by having them gallop instead
of walking fast, or using only their feet, or only their elbow to manipulate the cones.
4. For participants with disabilities such as ADHD, try reducing the stimulus within the
activity/area by reducing the amount of players or removing the music.
5. For participants who are deaf, one can signal the start/end of the activity by quickly
turning off/on the lights or by rising a symbol such as a red flag for start and a white
flag for ending the activity.
