Stampede

<

Grade level: K-5
Equipment: Hula hoops
Game Description: Round up the Stampede! Cowboys and cowgirls must go around and lasso those horses to bring them back to the stables. Using hula hoops to capture the galloping horses, this game is sure to be a hoot. As usual with these games, there’s lots of room to add in your own rules or variations as you see fit.

  1. Choose 4 players to be the cowboys. Give them each a hula hoop for a lasso.
  2. The rest of the students are horses, they start in the stables (center circle).
  3. Yell out, “STAMPEDE” and all the horses are released into the wild.
  4. The cowboys go around trying to round up the horses one at a time with their lasso. Carefully.
  5. Every time a horse is caught, it is brought back to the stables to hang out there until the rest are caught.
  6. Once all horses are caught, choose new cowboys and play again.
  7. Great game to utilize the galloping skill.
