Objective
In this activity the children build strength in their arms by holding each other (the potatoes) or pulling the potatoes loose (the farmer).
Instructions
- The children are potatoes lying on their stomach with their arms towards the centre holding each other’s hands.
- The farmer tries to loosen the potatoes one-by-one by pulling the potato’s leg.
- When the potato becomes separated from the others, the potato becomes a farmer and helps to loosen more potatoes.
