We just put on a Field Day for our homeschool group. This idea being the combined efforts of myself and another homeschool mom/friend. I thought I'd post because this has to be one the easiest events to do. Pick some events (three legged race, dash, etc), figure the supplies you need (stop watch w/ lap feature, fabric strips, finish line, etc.), make up some Field Day cards with the kids name, events and times so they have something to take home. Split the kids into two groups by grade (1st-4th and 5th and up) and request the help of the other parents for getting kids in line, watching which place their kids are in so they get their correct times, etc. Prizes were a Hershey's Kiss for each event winner and a blue ribbon for those who won the most events for their age group. Everyone brought lunches and we all kicked back after the games!! Fun was had by all and a couple kids (including mine!) asked when we can do it again! Remember: Good to have Field Day at a park near a playground for those parents with little ones.
