Most people find building and creating things fun or at least entertaining. Building a sand castle at the beach, making something from cardboard using tape, glue or scissors has been a time honored tradition of many youngsters for generations.
Building things in the virtual world versus the real world can be equally as enjoyable if not more fun since there is little or no clean-up at the end. Some of the most popular video games are those that allow players to create something in the imaginary world.
In certain video games, players in the virtual world can design and build complex projects, start a business and even manage and develop it. A whole city even built and designed with every imaginable factor involved including: pollution, urban sprawl and traffic problems.
In the popular computer game Zoo Tycoon, players are given the task to design and build a zoo so that all of its animal inhabitants are comfortable in their newly formed environments. Special care must be exercised when planning the habitat for a particular species of animal since an animal suited for the African savanna might not do too well in a rain forest environment.
How the animals in your zoo are cared is also a decision you will have to make with the choice of food and where their water will be placed in the exhibits.

This is a game that the native people of Arctic North America have played in the winter to pass the time.
1. A circle is formed with all the players standing as close together as they possibly can. They all then extend their arms out in front with palms turned upward and without gloves.
2. Once this circle of palms has been made, with each player touching another, a snowball is then shaped by one of the players who again will return his hand to the center circle.
3. The snowball goes around the circle as each player tilts his hand a little allowing it to be passed to the player on the left.
4. The game continues either the snowball melts from the heat of the players hands or is dropped onto the ground.
Sledding is every kid’s favorite winter pastime in colder climates. Just make sure you check the area for obstacles before you begin.
1. For sledding, all that you need is a snow covered, medium sloped hill free of rocks, trees or any other potential hazards.
2. Prior to your downhill run, check the course on foot for any other obstacles that might be hidden. Once finished, begin your ascent with your sled to the top of the hill.
3. If no sled is available, a simple piece of plastic can be used in place of it.
4. If a simple homemade sled made from plastic is used, whether you’re alone, in pairs or more riders, the sled can be controlled by using your heels to veer right or to the left.
This is a contest to see who can jump the farthest in the snow without stepping over the starting line.
1. Two parallel lines 30 feet apart are drawn on a smooth, uniform snow covered field.
2. The ground is stomped between the two parallel lines to smooth out the playing surface and create a slightly heavier layer of snow behind the second line.
3. Participants in the game will take turns running as fast as they can to the second line and the jumping as far as they possibly can. The distance is marked with their heel prints.
4. The jump is checked to make sure it’s valid by looking at the footprints near the second line. If a player has stepped over the line it will be seen on the snow and the jump will not count.
Being able to see details, variations and contrasts in the snow is what is needed to be successful in this winter game.
1. Three small white items are held by each player. Items might include; a bottle cap, wadded-up paper or a piece of chalk.
2. With all the player’s backs turned and all in a line, they all count to three and they all throw their items as far as they can behind them.
3. The players count to three one more time and then go in search of the items thrown into the snow. Since the items are all white in color, they will be difficult to spot. Having an eye for detail will be very helpful here.
4. Once all of the items have been collected, a count is taken to see who has found the most and therefore has the keenest vision.
This is a great game for youngsters who want to improve their pitching skills in the winter time when the playing field is covered with snow.
1. Three columns, six inches high are made of packed snow by each player in the game. All columns must be directly in line with one another.
2. Once the columns have been constructed, an order of throwing is established and all players are to take 5 steps back. Depending on the age of the participants, the throwing distance can be adjusted.
3. Players go in order, making snowballs and throwing them at the columns. A direct hit of a column scores one point.
4. Play continues until there are no more columns remaining. The player who is most successful in destroying his columns is the winner. If more rounds are played, everyone works together in shaping new columns.
Have fun making a basket out of snow and then make a game out of throwing snow balls into it.
1. Using well-packed snow, create a basket approximately one foot wide by six inches high including an attached handle in the shape of an arc.
2. Once the basket has been created, participants in the game will move five feet back and take turns throwing snowballs into the basket.
3. A player earns one point for the first snowball successfully thrown into the basket, two points for the second and three points for the third.
4. A player only receives the points gained after he leaves the game or misses a throw. It the handle is hit by a snow ball, that player loses all of his points from that round of play and it then becomes the next player’s turn.
