Bean-Bag Tag

Grade level: K-4

Game Description: Slide beanbags along the floor to tag other players in the foot. All players can run around and jump to dodge, but once there’s a beanbag in a player’s hand, they can no longer move around. When hit, players sit until a beanbag slides within reach.

1. Place many bean bags randomly spread out along the floor.
2. On the signal, players can run, jump, dodge – trying to not get hit by sliding bean bags.
3. Once a bean bag is picked up in hand, players can’t move. They must then slide the bean bag along floor attempting to hit the foot of another player.
4. Whenever a player is hit in the foot, he must sit down where hit (and give up any bean bags in hand).
5. Player is stuck down until a bean bag slides within reach and he can grab it.
