Include Some Fun Events

Playing newspaper boy is a lot of fun.

Be sure to include some fun events in your bike rodeo. A real hit is an event that allows kids to play at being a newspaper delivery boy.

If you choose to include this one, all you'll need is six to eight targets (clothes baskets, large tubs, trash cans, etc.) and an equal number of rolled newspapers, plus a bag that can be slung over a shoulder to hold the papers.

Lay the targets out one after another in a course, and have the kids ride the "route" trying to throw a newspaper from the bike in each target.
