This might kinda sorta work.

What's especially fun about sock puppets is that you can make each one unique and individual, so that they each have special characters. And they don't have to be human––animals and aliens are great possibilities

I used to do that for fun as a kid. Hard hat recommended.

Used to that by climbing them and on the way down you grab the next one etc etc the one who got the most down with out touching the ground won. Poor reprod behind the house took a beating that summer.

We were lazy. Before entering a burned area to replant, we kicked loose big boulders to knock as many snags down as we could. That was fun and made it a little bit safer to work in.

Nope. It has nothing to do with toes. Get several people sitting down behind rock, push with legs and it goes...and goes. Snags crass down. It's quite fun but apparently not to be done in these times.

^^^ ykm.gif I like the part where he trips over the tree he’s just knocked over & falls on his butt. I was visioning this as a Pee Wee Herman skit. The clip could really use a PWH laugh track.

As a kid we used to walk through forests of dying alders and hemlocks doing this made you feel like Superman.
