RED ROVER
In this game, the
kids form two lines facing each other. The idea is that each team
tries to "break through" the opposing team's line and take a person
from that team to build a bigger team.
To begin choose two
teams of equal size, and form two lines, facing each other and holding
hands.
One side starts by
picking a person on the opposing team and saying "Red Rover, Red Rover,
send (name) right over."
Rajesh then lets go
of his teammates and begins a headlong rush for the other line. His
goal is to break through the line by overpowering the kid's hold on
each other.
If the person you
called over breaks through, he chooses one person for the opposing team
to join his team, and they both go back and join in their line.<
If he fails to break
through, he/she becomes part of the other team./p>
Each team alternates calling people
over until one team has all the people and is declared the winner.
Note that since all the players are
on the winning team at the end, there really are no losers in this
game. |
