Use milk jugs to create a fun ball toss/catch game.  Using clean milk jugs, cut out the front quarter of the milk jug to create a "basket"  that can be held by the handle.  Cover the remaining parts of the jugs with duct tape.  Have children choose a ball, place in the jug and toss the ball back and forth from one person to the other and catch with the milk jug.  Make it more challenging by having children take a step backward each turn and see how far apart they can be while still tossing and catching.
