Games to play outside
Family activities sheet No 09
- Blob tag
- Choose two people to be ‘it'.
- Holding hands together, they run around trying to tag free players.
- If they tag someone, they then have to hold hands and become a blob of three. Then they chase to get a fourth person and become a blob of four.
- The four then splits into two and both blobs continue to chase. The game finishes when everyone is a pair.
- Underwater swimming
- Give a pair of flippers and a glass of water to each team.
- The first player stands at the startline, puts on the flippers, takes the glass of water and lifts it above their head so he/she is "under water".
- At a signal, the players begin to move forwards.
- Once the fixed distance is covered the first "submariner" passes the flippers and the glass to the next player.
- If any water has been spilled from the glass after the first run, add some more water.
