Game Description:
A fun way to use your homemade stomp and catch board!
Objective:
To catch your colour beanbag as it flies off the stomp n catch board!
Game Rules:
Place the stomp n catch board in the playing area, and have all the children playing the game surround the board. One child, or the leader can be the stomper. Have each child have their own colour beanbag. Then when everyone has placed their beanbag on the end of the stomp and catch board, have one person stomp up all the beanbags. The children must then try to catch their colour beanbag! Have the children take turns stomping, and trying to catch their colour beanbag.
Saftey Considerations:
Be sure that the stomper is not stomping until all the children are ready, and standing far enough away from the board.
Adaptations (optional):
Try different objects, to make it easier to harder for different ages.
Progression (optional):
Have the children then try to catch two different colours, or different objects. Challenges them to catch with their opposite hand.
