My neighbor created a peg bard with 2 inch dowel rods in every 4th or so hole. ON the bottom, she had written 8-10 little messages such as "pencil", popsicle, try again, candy, play again, etc and the kids were allowed to drop a golf ball on the top (kinda link Plinko - on the Price is Right game). It was time consuming, but all the kids loved the game. On the bottom, she created boarders by gluing square dowels big enough for the golf ball to land in.

Three Ring Circus - put out as many hula hoops as there are kids, play music and have the kids dance around until the music stops then they get in a hula hoop. Gradually take away hula hoops and when the music stops they still have to get in a hula hoop but there are less of them so they have to share now. Eventually they will get into just a few hula hoops.
