Game Description:
Try to be the last one left and avoid the taggers!
Objective:
The tagger tries to tag others and turn everybody into a Hunter!
Game Rules:
Before playing, outline your playing area using cones or lines on the floor. Pick 1 child to start of as the tagger, or the "Hunter". This is a free for all tag game, there are no teams. The game starts off with only 1 tagger and everybody will be trying to run away from them. When somebody gets tagged, they turn in to a tagger. As the game progresses, more people will get tagged and there will be more "Hunters" and less runners. Once all the runners are tagged and turn in to Hunters, the game is over. The runner who was the last one tagged by the Hunters will start off the next round as the first Hunter.
Saftey Considerations:
Tell children to run with their head up and make sure they look where they're running.
Adaptations (optional):
Part of the fun of the game is people change from runners to taggers so quickly, but if children are getting confused, advise them that once they turn into a Hunter, they must come to the side and put on a pinnie or hold a flag/block to signify that they are now a tagger.
