Game Description:
A fun holiday game!
Objective:
Don't get turned into a Christmas tree!
Game Rules:
Assign a few children to be 'its'. If an it tags another student they turn into a Christmas tree (standing up with arms just off their sides). The only way to get back into the game is if two other children come and chop the tree down. Then they would continue playing. Switch taggers often.
Saftey Considerations:
Make sure shoes are tied and no one chops hard.
Progression (optional):
Add a push up when the tree falls down.
