Game Description:
A fun multi-skill game to get kids moving!
Objective:
Try to hit the aliens with the dodgeball before they get all the power sources (beanbags) and take over the universe!
Game Rules:
Have all children start on base line and call them the Aliens. The Aliens try to run across the gym to pick up their power source (bean bag) one at a time. One child will start as a human on the outside of the Milky Way (playing area) and will try to throw dodgeball at the aliens. If an Alien is hit with a dodgeball they turn into a human and join in as a human. Instruct children that the hula hoops placed in the Milky Way are safe portals that they can stay inside for a max of 3 seconds, Aliens cannot be hit if inside a portal. If all the bean bags are collected by the Aliens, the Aliens take over the galaxy and win. If the humans take over, they win!
Saftey Considerations:
No head shots.
Adaptations (optional):
Instruct children to do an action like jumping jacks inside the portals.
