Spiers/spotters
Spiers/spotters is a hide-and-seek variation invented by my very own six-year-old son! I couldn’t be more proud!
Human tic-tac-toe
Human tic tac toe is a fun physically active group game that gives an exciting twist on the classic pen-and-paper game.
Garbage ball
An active game to play in a gym with a big group, garbage ball can be played with anything you can harmlessly throw across the gym – yes, even garbage! Well, wadded up pieces of paper, that is.
Floppy sock tag
A silly tag game to play indoors. Step on each other’s floppy socks until they fall off. Don’t lose both your socks or you’re out of the game!
Defend the castle
Kids claim a playground structure as their castle while grown-ups or older kids with decent aim try to peg them with soft, harmless balls. An activity to do for the fun of it, no winners or losers, just play.
