Area
Shallow water
Description: In waist-deep water, the group stands in a circle. The teacher chooses the starter, who must then do an action (eg blow bubbles) and each in turn must copy. The next turn goes to the student on the right of the starter. It is then their turn to pick an activity, adding to the previous one.

Knee-deep to waist-deep water
Description: Two members of each group join hands and form an arch. The remainder of the group stand one behind the other, each holding onto the waist of the person in front and ready to pass under the arch. On the word 'Go' each group, as a 'train', passes first under its own arch and then under every other arch. The First team to pass under all the arches and back through it's own is the winner.
