Party Game Central (http://www.partygamecentral.com/default.asp) I've used games from this site and they were pretty good. The games went well, and were a lot of fun.

Thanks... any suggestions? there are a lot there... and I have to keep in mind that we're dealing with a private (Christian) school, and a big age group... so that makes it a little harder... any favorites that you've used with kids?

try "camping trip" ( you can do a search) look at "peobble" you might be able to adapt it for kids. look at "shipmates" too.
I've done relays with spoons and cotton balls, or even ping pong balls.

ok so far I looked at "camping trip" and although I thought it looked fun... my sister said it would be to hard to do with the 1st and 2nd grade... I'll look at the others though thanks
(I forgot, what grade to you teach again.. 3rd, 4th?)

music: K-6
a relay race with spoons and cotton balls or ping pong balls would be good for many ages. make them start over if they drop the ball.

can you get hold of some cheap collector type cards? you know, like baseball or football, or some other silly things? You can put the cards on the floor, play some music and have the kids walk around the room, but not stepping on cards (they'll be out if they step on them while the music plays). Then stop the music, like musical chairs, when the music stops they have to put their foot on a card. kids without a card are out and sit out the rest of the game. Start the music again and begin removing cards (3 or 4) and continue to eliminate kids. Don't take it down to just 1 card though, they'll crash into each other and knock heads or get a bloody nose. Stop at 2 cards.
i have Hershey's Chocolate collector cards for this one, so I call my game Hershey Cards. small squares of colored construction paper or even 3x5 index cards would work.

I like this idea.... but we're a crazy group who can get really out of hand really easily... especially with the new teachers.. so I'll have to pass on that one, thatnks though
